A golden opportunity for PULPITARIAN to follow up a recent C&D success from a 5lb higher mark with ground conditions seemingly ideal. He has made an impressive return to the track from a lengthy absence this campaign, and whilst he probably didn't beat all that much last time, the manner of his victory was pleasing. Kentucky Star is feared despite top-weight whilst more market support for Improved could prove particularly telling. 1. Pulpitarian 2. Improved 3. Kentucky Star
