Race preview
GARDE VILLE has won his last three and could appreciate this stiffer test of stamina under Immy Robinson. The 11-year-old has thrived on this decent ground in recent weeks and looks difficult to oppose. Summer Sounds completed a quick-fire point-to-point double 12 days ago for Francesca Nimmo and could go close again, while Coco Live, Fifty Shades and Sugar Baron are other names fancied to be competitive.
