Newmarket raiders SEA GIFTED (NAP) and Makfoul may end up dominating this contest. Sister to three winners, including the smart Raheen House, the former couldn’t match the finishing speed of previous winner Royal Scandal at Kempton but has plenty of scope for improvement, though the latter has run well in all three starts to date and won’t go down without a fight. Two Auld Pals and Ain't No Sunshine might be the pick of the older horses.
