Verdict

An open-looking sprint which can go the way of MONTEZUMA, who has taken his form up a notch this season and again impressed with how he travelled through the contest when finding one too strong at Musselburgh 3 weeks ago. Heading up the dangers is Juan les Pins, who has added a new layer of consistency to his game of late despite his advancing years. Stirrup Cup, The Good Biscuit and Rock Opera are just a handful of others to consider, too.

3	Low-mileage 4-y-o who has upped his game this season, getting off the mark in 17-runner event at Musselburgh last month. Ran every bit as well from a 7 lb higher mark when second of 12 there (5f, good) a fortnight later (typically travelled well) and fancied to be bang there returned to 6f. 1st Pick 3 Montezuma Jockey: Paul Mulrennan Trainer: Jim Goldie J: Paul Mulrennan T: Jim Goldie	100	-	-	-	25%

4	In fine form this spring and notched a second win of the campaign in a 15-runner event at Thirsk (6f) last month. Has added a new layer of consistency to his game of late and again ran a cracker when second of 18 at Ascot (6f, good to firm) 8 days ago. Shortlisted again in this mood. 2nd Pick 4 Juan Les Pins Jockey: Kevin Stott Trainer: Michael Appleby J: Kevin Stott T: Michael Appleby	98	-	-	-	13%	Scratched

12	Dual 6f scorer (including over C&D) who encouragingly strung good efforts together but again failed to get the gaps when third of 18 at Thirsk (6f, good) last month. Evidently up to winning a similar event if able to hold his form a bit longer. 3rd Pick 12 Stirrup Cup Jockey: David Allan Trainer: Tim Easterby J: David Allan T: Tim Easterby	99	-	-	-	13%
