Race preview
Lightning Bay has stepped forward on his last couple of starts with a brace of runner-up efforts at Wolverhampton and Lingfield. He switches to turf for the first time and may have more to offer, but a chance is taken on OUR PAPA SMURF. Dropped 3lb following his nursery debut at Chelmsford in November, he represents a stable that does well with similar types and it would be no surprise if the son of Too Darn Hot had more to offer. Tenyatta, Rasmah and Elforleather head the remainder.
