ELDEYAAR returns to defend his crown in a race he won last year and looks primed after a solid second at Wolverhampton recently. This course specialist can get the better of Hurstwood, another with excellent Ripon form. Roundhay Park has been in good form lately, winning here in July and placing at Pontefract just 9 days ago.
