Race preview
This can go the way of FARNBOROUGH, who has been runner-up on each of his last three starts and should be well suited by dropping back in trip. A mark of 87 on his handicap debut looks manageable and he can see off the likes of stablemate Carracci and Red Letter Bray, who arrives here on a hat-trick. Completing the shortlist are the likes of Canute, Polar Bear and Tough Talk.
