Race preview
The consistent Ney deserves to feature amongst those prominent on the shortlist, but TARBAT NESS could be worth siding with. Third in this from a 4lb lower mark 12 months ago, he represents a stable that won this in 2022 and he is likely to improve on last month's Wolverhampton return. The booking of Silvestre De Sousa is also notable, while Cold Henry is most appealing of the remainder.
