None of this quintet have run here before and a few of them are taking an ease in grade having chanced their arm in Group company in the past few outings.
Hurstwood was outclassed in the Group 2 July Stakes last time having defeated
MONOSKI the time before at Pontefract in a small-field conditions event but it may well be that Mark Johnston’s charge was suffering from his Group 2 Coventry Stakes exertions then and at the weights can reverse the form.
Oh Purple Reign has prior to his last run been an ultra-consistent sort and he could make his weight advantage count back at 6f. Dual 5f Musselburgh winner
Bill Neigh can’t be ignored and adds depth to an intriguing event.
