Race preview
BURNING ISSUES returned to winning ways over C&D on his most recent outing in August and the veteran performer is capable of striking again at a track he clearly likes. The Late Legend has run with credit on both his starts this season, finishing second at Uttoxeter and Newton Abbot, and he enters the reckoning along with Friends Don't Ask, who is open to progression on just his third start over fences.
