Race preview
Ron O arrives here in search of a hat-trick following a pair of quick-fire wins and he's expected to mount another serious challenge, but preference is for ZEALOT. The four-year-old bolted up at Kempton three days ago when fitted with first-time cheekpieces (retained) and he rates the one to beat under a 5lb penalty. Ring Of Gold was successful off a 4lb lower mark on his latest outing and he demands the utmost respect with Billy Loughnane taking 7lb off the gelding's back.
