Race preview
Back to form with an easy success at Perth last time out after a respectable second over C&D before that, HELTENHAM sets the standard, and he still looks well-treated on old form. Yes Indeed has been on a roll since joining the Martin Keighley stable, and stepping up in trip could bring about further improvement in the eight-year-old. A promising runner-up at Chepstow last time out, Light N Strike is capable of being in the shake-up, along with Excello.
