Going - Good to Firm. 
View all races Draw Analysis Result Odds Compare

Formscan  - The three previous renewals took place at Haydock and Richard Hughes' yard has won two of them. Today's representative WINDING STREAM faced a tough test in the Britannia at Royal Ascot on his handicap debut, but he ran well for a long way and could make the most of this easier opportunity. I'll Be Back remains unbeaten after landing a novices race at Leicester and may prove up to this level, while Proud Nation and Ironwill also warrant respect.
