Race Tip

This could prove tactical. GREGORY (2) secures rider James Doyle and rates the obvious pace angle by securing a potential easy lead. Might prove hard to beat in the closing stages after a good third-placed finish in the G2 Lonsdale Cup at York. Set Weights EET WILLIAM (4) needs to be delivered very late. There is no doubt he holds form to play a major role following 4L runner-up effort to a champion stayer in the G1 Goodwood Cup. POINT LONSDALE (3) was disappointing when fifth behind the main selection at York. Brings G1-placed form and cannot be ignored representing trainer Aidan O'Brien. Chances for TRUESHAN (5) would be enhanced by further ease in ground as he attempts to follow up victory from last year.
