La Trinidad undoubtedly has the bit between his teeth but will have to defy another 12lb rise to complete his hat-trick and that will be tough. Knightcap could go well at a price as she is one who wouldn’t mind further rain and she’s been steadily coming to hand this season. Abstemious has been getting closer while End Zone makes his handicap debut in his first start since being gelded. Placed at Haydock and Kempton last year, he should have more to offer. Vape is another maiden with solid claims while Imperial Gloriana made a winning reappearance at Redcar. HURCLE was making his debut on Turf when placed behind a couple of improvers at Pontefract. The first three pulled well clear of the rest and cheekpieces could bring about further improvement.
