Race preview
Michael's Pledge has been threatening to score and it would be no surprise to see him finally get off the mark here, but he may have to play second fiddle again, this time to AIGHEAR. Despite some good efforts in defeat this summer, Jim Goldie's mare returns off a 1lb lower mark than when she won this race 12 months ago and she should relish the step back up in trip. Cantalupo Bella separated a couple of subsequent winners when second over 2m at Newbury last time and is another to note.
