Race preview
MIQUELON started life with Andre Fabre in France and has finished second in both starts since joining Archie Watson, at Wetherby and Wolverhampton. Both were over 7f and as he was caught and passed a furlong out last time, the drop back to 6f looks ideal. If he can get a soft lead, he could well prove difficult to catch. Mehraki Star is an interesting newcomer and set connections back 15,000gns at the breeze up sales last July. Captain Vallo was seventh on debut here as a juvenile. He has had a wind operation since, and has been gelded, and could improve considerably.
