Global Prospector is still 7lb higher than when completing a hat-trick at Bath last July but ran well on his reappearance at Newbury. Along with Chipstead, Indian Creak was unplaced behind Shobiz at Goodwood but left that run well behind when just caught at Newbury on Friday. INVER PARK has placed in both starts since joining George Boughey, including one over track and trip. The in-form Ben Curtis is in the saddle this evening and he’s weighted to go close if a high draw doesn’t prove too much of a disadvantage. Media Guest and Hello Me were both progressive on Turf last year and can’t be ignored in an open-looking sprint.
