Verdict

There was plenty to like about the way ROYAL HOUSEHOLD went about his business when scoring at Goodwood last time out and he may well prove a useful performer. Despite his winner's penalty he is taken to get the better of Magic Mark, who didn't get the best of runs when third here last time out. Kempton scorer Encrypted is a danger if proving as capable on turf as on the A/W, while Ulshaw Bridge is interesting having hinted on debut there could be more to come. Any market confidence behind Richard Fahey's Push 'n Pull, Sands of Mali, or Collateral Beauty would be significant.
  1. Royal Household
  2. Magic Mark
  3. Encrypted
