Going - Good to Soft (Good in places). 
View all races Draw Analysis Result Odds Compare

Formscan  - Astapor has been in good form since April, with the latest of his efforts coming when third at Hamilton off this same rating, and he is likely to go well once more. However, the one that takes the eye more is MUATADEL, who filled the runner-up spot at Beverley on his most recent outing and he remains 6lb lower than last his winning mark. Imperial Khan completes the shortlist after his fifth last time.
