Race preview
The David Simcock-trained HARRY BROWN looks to have been found an ideal opportunity to get off the mark at the fifth time of asking. He's run with credit on all starts to date, most recently finishing third at Thirsk where he didn't get the clearest of passages. The booking of Ryan Moore for newcomer Sabah Al Ward catches the eye and any market support would be significant. George Boughey continues to have has string in fine order and his Sporting Hero wasn't disgraced when fifth on debut behind Noble Style.
