Race preview
HIGHLAND ACCLAIM bids to land a hat-trick of victories in a race named in his honour and could feasibly step up on his C&D fourth in a higher grade last time and find the improvement needed to score. He's rated only 2lb higher than when scoring on the all-weather in February so is competitively weighted. Ashpan Sam is closely matched with the selection on their clash here last week and has place claims along with recent Brighton second Diamond Lady.
