Race preview
Maywake was just able to get the better of Lead Story when scoring by a neck over this C&D last month and he is respected off a 5lb higher mark. However, preference is for ORBAAN, who should find this to be easier task after his latest outing which came in the Listed Hyde Stakes at Kempton. The son of Invincible Spirit remains lightly raced on the all-weather and he can resume winning ways off a workable mark of 91. Sanaadh has been given a chance by the handicapper and also has claims.
