Race OverviewThe ground will be key here, not least for highly promising Sir Des Champs, who could be anything but would prefer the ground to ease. King Of The Night is another unexposed one representing a high-profile stable but preference is for ASTRACAD, who has decent track form and has continued to make a good impression this season. Qaspal has been off a long time but could be very dangerous.[Emily Weber]
