Eleven runs since his last win in 2025 but he comes here in good form, third of 10 in classified event at Lingfield (1½m, all-weather) 8 days ago when left with lot to do. Not taken lightly in headgear change (first-time visor).

Forecasts

Smoker Bellamy (11/4), Ravenswell (10/3), Someone's Wish (9/2), Spaceage Love Song (11/2), Fighting Poet (10/1), D Day Major Winter (12/1), Lawmans Blis (14/1), Raise The Stakes (14/1), Beat The Odds (50/1), N'ion (66/1), Hammal (200/1)

Verdict

SPACEAGE LOVE SONG rates just the pick of the weights and is taken to gain a second C&D success here at the chief expense of in-form duo Fighting Poet and Smoker Bellamy who can chase home Michael Bell's 3-y-o in that order.
