Race preview
PROMETEO was well beaten on his seasonal return at Newbury, but he was progressive last season and ought to step forward with that run under his belt. Warren Fentiman eases the burden with his handy 5lb claim and, dropped into claiming company, Marco Botti's charge should prove difficult to beat. Rogue Soldier is rated 13lb inferior but looks to be the main threat. Market support for Encourager, who returns from a 591-day absence, would be noteworthy.
