Verdict

IMMORTAL BLISS (5) was very impressive late at Ascot over 5f, finishing 0.9L off the winner as the race favourite. He steps right out to 6 ½f which is a query, but his prior form and sectionals say it won't be an issue. Pike remains in the saddle and a forward showing is expected. TIMELESS GEM (7) missed by a length last start when jumping an odds-on pop at Ascot last time out. On the quick turnaround here, but did win on the 7-day back up at Ascot two starts back. Parnham was on board there and hops back aboard now. Can bounce back to winning ways. COLD SHIZZLE (3) hasn't been far away in recent efforts, finishing just behind Timeless Gem last week. Maps beautifully off the inside draw once again and can be in the finish again. WINEACLOCKSUMWHERE (12) wasn't beaten far in the Fitzpatrick last start and has to be included on the back of that effort. CHARINO (4) is racing in top order and won't be far away.
