Race preview
This can go the way of COME ON GRUFF, who shaped very well when placed at Kempton last time out. That was a return to form for Tom George's charge and the drop in trip could work a treat, with the mare Emmpressive Lady looking best placed to chase him home on her first start since last February. Iamastar is bound to come on for his first run in this country, while Ballyellis is a player based on the pick of his form.
