Royal Dynasty has won three times over today’s trip on the all-weather this year but has yet to score on Turf while Capla Berry clipped heels and unseated at Newbury when bidding for a hat-trick but is upped in class for this. Colonel Whitehead has been thereabouts over today’s trip recently but KING’S KNIGHT has the more scope having won a novices' race at Beverley last month and should make a bold bid on his handicap debut. Lucky Louie has a shout back in this lower grade and Tipperary Jack should be sharper for a recent comeback.
