A chance is taken on FERRYBRIDGE, who stepped up on what he showed in Ireland when fourth at Sedgefield on his first start for the James Owen yard. This low-mileage 5-y-o will be a serious contender if able to build on that. Ten Ten Twenty went close at Kelso last month and is feared most off the same mark, while Bahtiyar, the consistent Pittsburg and Vin Rouge are others to consider.
