Race preview
ETON BLUE made use of his stamina under Simon Walker in a similar race over a shorter trip at Goodwood last week and still has a lot to offer, despite picking up a 5lb penalty for that victory. However, it's perhaps more notable that the partnership also landed this corresponding race in 2021 and, given this doesn't appear to be an overwhelmingly competitive renewal, a repeat success could be imminent. Last year's victor Silver Bubble is feared most, although Starfighter is another serious contender at this level.
