CUSTARD THE DRAGON can put a couple of disappointing turf efforts behind him by making a winning fibresand return in this highly competitive handicap contest. The selection has won five of his six starts here and can take this off a mark 5lb higher than when winning here in April. Of his rivals today Echo Of Lightning has run well on turf in two starts since joining this yard and can claim second while the apprentice ridden Holiday Magic was successful here in January and can claim third on this occasion.
