Race preview
WILLARD CREEK has been a steady improver for the David Barron stable and he gets the vote to strike at the third time of asking here. Behind the reopposing Jack Daniel (first) on his debut for which he is 5lb better off, the son of Havana Gold has since finished runner-up over C&D behind a talented Godolphin-owned gelding. Thunder Power is another who has been learning on the job but he may well need further, while newcomer Isle Of Dreams could have a say.
