Race preview
A full-brother to the useful Laneqash and a good third in a Sandown maiden last summer, it's hard to oppose OPEN MIND in this contest. Since his last outing at Newcastle in June 2021, where the three-year-old hung right, he's been gelded in an attempt to help him settle. This, combined with the application of cheekpieces, makes him a worthy contender. Zero Carbon has an appealing pedigree and is one to watch, with Dashing Rat looking to improve on his all-weather debut.
