A progressive 3-time winner last season, DOYEN DU BAR made a bright start for the Nicky Richards stable when third on his reappearance at Newbury 4 weeks ago. It's feasible to think he can build on that and he shades preference over the returning Madara, who is a fascinating contender down in class. Traprain Law is also respected as an in-form sort.

Race Hints
Specific Pace Hint: In a race that lacks confirmed pace-forcers, Doyen Du Bar could get the run of things: Of the better-fancied horses, Madara is most likely to be ridden furthest from the pace.
Individual Price Hint: Traprain Law has traded at 50% or less of Betfair SP twice on its last 5 starts: Harper's Brook has traded at 50% or less of Betfair SP 3 times on its last 5 starts.
