Race preview
DICHATO found 6f on the sharp side when second over 6f at Newmarket last time and is expected to improve for this step up in trip. Doublet should be all the wiser for the experience gained on debut, while it would be surprising if there wasn't better to come from Font Vert, who qualifies for a handicap mark after this. The principal threat, however, may be Richard Hannon's newcomer Algam, who fetched 200,000gns as a yearling.
