EMPIRE OF LIGHT shaped best at the weights when denied a clear run at Musselburgh 6 days ago and has a strong chance to make amends now back up in trip. Baikal won comfortably on handicap debut at Wolverhampton and remains open to further improvement stepping up to 10f on turf debut. Jupiter Ammon has been knocking on the door with 3 runner-up finishes and should be on the premises once again.
