Bell Heather won a division of this race last year and returns to the venue for this first time since scoring here in February. American Patrol failed to cope with a rise in the weights last time having won at Lingfield earlier and it could pay to stick with CELTIC ARTISAN. He’s won two of his last three outings over track and trip and another bold bid is expected despite a 3lb rise. Magwadiri may improve on only his third start for new connections and Baashiq slips further down the weights.
