Nationalism Heads Field


Ante-post favourite Nationalism features among a maximum field of 35 declared for the totesport.com Cambridgeshire at Newmarket on Saturday.

The progressive three-year-old will run from stall three in the nine-furlong handicap and is one of three runners from John Gosden's yard, the others being High Twelve and Taqleed.

The latter is owned by Sheikh Hamdan Al Maktoum, who will also be represented by Taameer. The four-year-old, trained by Marcus Tregoning, carries top weight of 9st 10lb.

Leading fancies set to do battle in the first leg of the autumn double include Luca Cumani's Start Right, the Barry Hills-trained Ransom Note, Walter Swinburn's Absinthe, Gerard Butler's Elliptical and sole Irish raider Pires, from Tony Martin's stable in County Meath.
