Race preview

A E Housman could prove popular for the John and Thady Gosden team after shedding his maiden tag on the all-weather and he's open to more progress now upped in trip on this his handicap debut. That said, ASCENDING makes most appeal after being narrowly denied at Newbury last month and a 1lb rise shouldn't prevent the son of Awtaad from going well once more. Fellow three-year-olds Tartan Chief, Elena's Gift and Deferred all merit consideration in a competitive race.
