Dad’s Yankees finished just under a length ahead of Perfetto in a similar race here two weeks ago with Mulled Wine and Doc Kane well beaten. The latter had earlier finished third behind Lem Me Tel Ya over 6f and Anthony Rini’s entire is another to consider, though is arguably held by Ox Trot on the form book. Gary Wales’ mount possibly didn’t stay a mile last time but has something to find with MALIO’S (NAP) on that run and it’s Gerald Bennett’s four-year-old that gets the nod ahead of Elusive Rio, who may have gone off the boil.
