Race preview

A strong-looking renewal of this contest with plenty of in-form rivals taking each other on here. SUBSTANTIAL looks sure to enjoy this test and with Jamie Spencer up for the first time, he makes most appeal following his victory at Haydock last month. Makeen rarely runs a bad race and could be on the premises again after a good third at Carlisle last time, while C&D winner Empirestateofmind has some form that would give him a chance in this too.
