Race preview
Having been narrowly denied at Chester in May, PONS AELIUS made no mistake when winning at Goodwood the following month. Charlie Johnston's colt was a winner over course and distance from a 2lb lower mark in December and the son of Galileo could continue to progress over marathon trips. Arcadian Friend (also engaged to run at Chelmsford on Tuesday evening) hit the woodwork at Lingfield last month and he's likely to be in the thick of things once again. A step up in trip could suit the lightly-raced Fox Vision and he heads the remainder.
