Lightly raced 4yo; improvement needed but this drop to 1m is well worth a go
7 (2)	Clove Hitch Bay J:Oisin Murphy T:Andrew Balding	J:Oisin Murphy T:Andrew Balding	123	—	5-3215	100	116	96	63d	—	—	+2	16.9	1.50/1	6/1 14%

9yo; not at very best this year but this 5-time Group 3 winner could still be in the mix
6 (4)	Sparks Fly Bay J:Laura Pearson T:David Loughnane	J:Laura Pearson T:David Loughnane	128	—	116-55	104	118	109	48d	—	—	+11	14.5	6.25/1	25/1 4%
