Katie Gale was still beaten a long way when third over a longer trip here recently but last year’s runner-up Tynecastle Park scored over track and trip back in August and is 5lb higher. Ruler Of The Nile went close over 1m4f here last week and has scored over course and distance before but the less exposed CONSTITUENT is preferred. A first-time visor appeared to do the trick when the latter landed a seller over track and trip last month and the presence of a leading amateur in Serena Brotherton further boosts confidence in Mick Appleby’s charge.
