Race preview
VICTORY DAY appeared an unlucky loser when given plenty to do in a valuable sprint in which the winner made all at York last time out. The lightly-raced son of Bated Breath is 6lb higher in the ratings today but he could still be very well handicapped. Hero Hero failed to see see out a mile in the Britannia at Royal Ascot when last sighted but he had previously shown good form at shorter trips. Andrew Balding's colt likes to go forward and he could be hard to peg back this afternoon. Kinks and Pass The Vino fought out the finish in a competitive contest at Newmarket two weeks ago and could also go well in an open finale.
