Lucky Man never threatened the winner when second at York and Ripon runner-up Emperor Spirit is preferred in this lower grade. Treacherous finished in front of Mitrosonfire when narrowly beaten at Windsor while better is expected from Fivethousandtoone back at this level having struggled in the Wokingham last time. But TANMAWWY also raced here last month and drops back down to his winning trip having failed to stay 7f here in the Buckingham Palace. Charlie Hills’ charge gets another chance and should go close.
