Dressedforsuccess gained a hard-fought success at Sheriff Hutton last month but that wasn’t much of a race. Gold Time has won his last two between the flags but had only won one of his previous 15. BENEFAKTOR was a disappointing favourite at Cheltenham a month ago but quickly back into his stride at Edgcote a couple of weeks later and Gina Andrews’ mount should be far too good for these.
