Race preview
Bobby Kennedy was only denied by a length at Bath over an extended 1m3f and a 3lb rise for that effort is likely to keep him in contention. However, a chance can be taken on MARBUZET, who wasn't disgraced when beaten in sixth at Ayr last time over 1m5f and was dropped 2lb for that display. The four-year-old is feasibly treated as he is now only 2lb higher than his last winning mark. Foursome appears best of the remainder.
