Race preview
Those with experience don't set a daunting standard, with Kempton sixth Cresta De Vega looking just about the best of them, so it could pay to concentrate on the newcomers. Lysander and Lionel warrant plenty of respect representing William Haggas and David Menuisier respectively, but a chance is taken on ALHABOR from the in-form Alan King stable. His dam was a 7f Listed scorer and, costing 95,000gns as a yearling, it will be disappointing if he doesn't run a big race on debut.
