RACE TWO
Mixing his form and facing challenges set about by his own manners RIGONDEAUX (2) produced a much-improved effort last time out. Moving up to sit outside the leader, he did it the tough way over the 2647m and was game in holding on for 3rd behind MAJESTIC HARRY. From the front tape he might just pinch this.
RILEY MOMENT (10) put it all together last start when safely away from the tapes over the 2138m and soon after was able to find the front. Controlling the tempo, she kept them rolling and pulled clear to claim victory by 21m. A winner three starts back, she will have to defy the 20m tape for this.
FATHER CHRISTMAS (1) made a complete mess of the start last time out and was never a factor after being left behind. Runner-up here three starts back, a safe getaway can have him in the mix.
REGAL APPOINTMENT (8) has finished in the money at his past two starts, the latest when facing the 10m tape and chasing hard behind RILEY MOMENT. He can feature again here.
