Grey Mist arrives in fine form having landed a double at Newcastle before scoring over hurdles at Musselburgh. St Andrews also won at Newcastle last time though that was back in October while Bird For Life was successful over 2m at Lingfield recently and is another to consider along with Up Ten Down Two, a winner for today’s amateur over 1m6f here in August. But Serena Brotherton partners KNIGHT COMMANDER, beaten only a neck over course and distance recently, and that should give her mount the edge.
