WILD FLOWER is penalised for last week’s victory at Chepstow but has won off higher marks in the past and 7lb claimer Molly Presland, who rode a winner last week, steered her into a place on her first run for new connections. Oisin Murphy is an interesting booking for the unexposed Prince Casper but Arzaak is having a first run on Turf in more than a year. Tilsworth Rose hasn’t been disgraced off this mark since winning at Lingfield last month and should be in the mix again.
