Twentyfirst Lancer attempts to defy a penalty having won over 1m5f at Exeter on his debut. MEATLOAF is a half-brother to both a Listed winner on the Flat and useful stablemate and Grade 3 winner Thyme White so Paul Nicholls’ newcomer gets the nod. Juggernaut is related to bumper winners in France while Scratch Card is related to a host of winners on the level. Mr Mackay is preferred to stable companion Josh The Boss on jockey bookings.
