LONGEST TRAVELLER: SUPREME KING trained by D Evans, Abergavenny, 127 miles.
An ultra-competitive sprint in which preference is for DUBLIN BAY, who bolted up at Wolverhampton recently and a 10lb rise may not be enough to prevent Ollie Sangster’s 3-y-o from following up Marcellinus got within a flared nostril of scoring here 12 days ago and he may have to settle for silver again, with Kiniro another fancied to be in the shake up, too.
