PLAY SMARTER

HORTZADOR races off the same mark as when successful at Ripon in the spring and it might be worth taking a chance that first-time cheekpieces help him to bounce back to form. Strongbowe and Eligible are a couple of obvious threats, while Bearaway would also be a big player if translating his AW form over to turf.

MR ORANGE fared better than of late in a change of headgear when third over C&D last month, and racing in a much smaller field than he’s used to competing in, Paul Midgley’s charge won’t get many better opportunities to add to his seven C&D wins from a career-low mark.
