SARATOGA (9) enjoyed an ideal campaign for this handicap following a Naas third with an eye-catching second there over 1m7 1/2f most recently. JP McManus boasts three of the last six winners of the race. Leading contender. WINSTON JUNIOR (7) progressed markedly when scoring by 4L at Ascot tackling 1m7 3/4f. Represents the main danger with Jack Kennedy a notable engagement. Classy French import MANLAGA (8) opened the campaign with a Listed second at Doncaster before winning at Haydock contesting 1m7 1/2f. Continues to improve and can feature. MUNSIF (23) was a useful flat performer for Roger Varian and shaped solidly when third at Naas in a rated hurdle on latest outing. Impossible to dismiss representing shrewd connections.
