Limato bids to win the Challenge Stakes (3.00) for the second year running for Henry Candy and Harry Bentley. The pair have a 33 per cent strike-rate when teaming up at Newmarket and will hope the hat-trick bid pays off.

Nicky Henderson has his string in good order with a 50 per cent strike-rate in the last fortnight. He also has a 39 per cent record at Newton Abbot which Lough Derg Spirit bids to enhance in the 3.25.
