Race preview
The progressive JOKER DE MAI had plenty in hand when winning at Lingfield 10 days ago and is difficult to oppose, despite the imposition of a 7lb penalty. Molly Ollys Wishes is on a workable mark and is the biggest threat to the selection, while Imperial Bede and Issam have scope to improve and Quinta Do Mar could also go well.
