Frankie rides Unforgotten, who has raced exclusively on the all-weather so far and finished runner-up in the Lincoln Trial at Wolverhampton last month. But GREATGADIAN caught the eye finishing strongly at Doncaster in the Lincoln itself and having won off today’s mark last term, Roger Varian’s charge gets the vote in first-time cheekpieces. Harswell Duke won over today’s trip at Doncaster’s Lincoln meeting with Raising Sand back in fourth while Bucephalus was also successful on Town Moor when scoring over 1m2f. Ashky showed good progress here last year and returns to action.
