Race preview
A competitive three-year-old handicap in which Ripon scorer Great Example is entitled to improve for going up in distance and Buriram should have more to give. Kiefer and Gantier are closely matched on their meeting at Newbury, when the former got off the mark, but this could be all about APPARATE. Representing in-form connections, the son of Dubawi won his maiden well at Newmarket and a mark of 83 may underestimate his ability given the second looked smart when the penny dropped.
