Race preview
VITESSE DU SON justified strong market support when winning at Wolverhampton recently and Alice Haynes' charge could take all the beating under a 5lb penalty. Lake Sand is a C&D winner and he demands the utmost respect, along with Eagle Eyed Freddie, whose consistency ought to bode well in a race of this nature. Nick Vedder has shown more in recent starts and he should not be underestimated either.
