Race preview
WATCHDOG headed the market on his first start following a gelding operation and so nearly justified it at Southwell last week. Richard Fahey turns him out again before his revised rating comes into effect and the move can pay dividends. Grey Horizon has left the Musley Bank handler to join Scott Dixon since a Catterick success and has shown glimpses of ability on the all-weather. Even so, King Victorious is feared most after a couple of placed efforts of late.
