NATCHEZ TRACE pulled clear of the rest when runner-up in a useful handicap at Nottingham last week and makes obvious appeal turned out quickly from the same mark. Dr T J Eckleburg should be all the better for a recent run and may yet have a bigger performance in the locker. Last year’s winner Firewater is not taken lightly, either.
