The progressive MASARZAIN defied a penalty to win by five lengths at Musselburgh and complete a double - he looks capable of performing the same feat in this. Buzz Lightyere has been in fine form at Brighton but is best at that track while Pacific Salt failed in a bid for a hat-trick when third off today’s mark at Newmarket last time. Stosur is usually thereabouts without winning but the veteran Shifting Star finished in front of Groor when third over track and trip recently.
