Verdict

Late Arrival took 19 attempts to win on Turf but finally succeeded with a victory at Pontefract last month. He’s penalised along with Enduring, who was also recording his first win on this surface when scoring at Bath. Alcazan has a good strike rate on the all-weather but SECOND COLLECTION is back on a winning mark and a recent third over the minimum trip here suggests he can go close in this.
