CRYSTAL BLACK continued his rise through the ranks last year when successful in this race, scoring with a bit in hand, and with this season's reappearance behind him he can get back on the up. He is taken to see off the challenge of Sons And Lovers, who has run well in his 3 starts for Joseph O'Brien, with Layfayette the pick of the remainder.
