Race preview
DUKE OF OXFORD took a step back in the right direction on his return to the all-weather when finishing third in the Northumberland Plate last time and a 2lb rise is unlikely to inconvenience the four-year-old. Dropping back in trip may also benefit Michael Bell's gelding, along with the booking of Saffie Osborne. Intellotto may well have been unlucky not to win at the Curragh in late June and the extra couple of furlongs here appear likely to benefit his cause. Oneforthegutter and Reaching High appeal most of the remainder.
