Excellent when second first up from a spell here last time, Viscount Mackendon (12) looks a quick winner this campaign. A bit of traffic to navigate here off the 10m handicap but has a class edge on most in this line up and with a good beginning\u00a0<\/span>won\u2019t<\/span>\u00a0be too far off them.\u00a0<\/span><\/span>\u00a0<\/span>

A nice return to form of late from Miss Brabant (2) and looks ready to find the winners\u2019 circle once again here from a handy draw. Gets a leading junior as well which is always a big bonus and with a sweet trip on the top end can have the final say tonight.\u00a0<\/span><\/span>\u00a0<\/span>

A superb fresh up win here last month from Turn O The Tide (7) signalled that a good campaign is in the reckoning this time in. Had to do a power of work first\u00a0<\/span>up, but<\/span>\u00a0never shirked it and won impressively. Given some time to recover and should be ready to go again.
