Race preview
BOND BROKER offered plenty of encouragement on his third-placed Rules debut at Exeter in November and natural improvement could make the five-year-old tough to beat. Newcomer Lumi Plugin won't be lacking for stamina in this sphere and the Kayf Tara gelding is taken to go well. Any market support for Gary Moore's gelding would be noteworthy, with similar sentiments applying to Silver Thorn.
