HART STOPPER is one of two for his owner here, which complicates matters, but he would have won but for missing the kick at Newmarket last time, and can make amends now. Raucous has been gradually getting back to his best this year, and may prove the main danger in a deep contest, although Eastern Impact and Victory Angel also command respect.
