PLAY SMARTER

QUERCUS enhanced his good record at Catterick in June and is taken to bounce back from a modest effort last time with the benefit of an advantageous high draw. Made of Lir finished ahead of Ginato at Ripon last time and that pair are both respected again, whilst Golden Gal lurks on an interesting mark and isn’t discounted.
