Race preview
SHUTTHEGATE was a decisive winner of his latest start at Chepstow in first-time blinkers when making his debut for Henry Oliver, and it would be no surprise if the nine-year-old were able to back that performance up. Eros nearly shed his maiden tag when beaten a neck at Warwick and he is capable of another decent showing. Professor Calculus may have been inconvenienced by a quick turnaround at Taunton under a penalty and is better judged on his success at the same venue a week earlier.
