Most of these have been taking each other on in similar events and are hard to separate. That applies literally to Titus Gent and MY SON MAX, who dead-heated for third at Lingfield in December. However, P J O'Gorman's charge had no luck in-running on that occasion and is taken to come out best today, especially as he's Kieren Fallon's only ride of the meeting. Triple Dream has leading claims given he beat Sandfrankskipsgo at Lingfield last month. But the former had earlier found Royal Bajan too good over track and trip when James Given's charge also beat Rocket Rob, Six Wives and Island Legend.
