Race preview

IMARAJAN responded well to first-time cheekpieces to fill the runner-up berth over a similar trip here in May and could go one better. Better ground holds no fears for this graduate from the Flat, who could be tough to overhaul with the headgear is retained. Codger's Rock is another that performed creditably when second at this venue in May. That was over a shorter trip and, with cheekpieces deployed, he looks a significant player given the form has been franked by the third winning since. His stablemate, Chantilly Wings, has snippets of form to give him a chance and he is noted with a first-time tongue-tie tried.
