Race preview
BARLEY won with any amount in hand at Nottingham earlier in the month and, with the runner-up going in since, a mark of 86 could greatly underestimate Martyn Meade's charge on handicap debut. Papa Cocktail was possibly unlucky not to win at least one more as a juvenile and he is bred to get a mile as he makes his return for the red-hot Tom Clover stable. Cephalus has been in terrific form on the all-weather but remains winless on turf, while Outside World is likely to be well suited by these conditions.
