Verdict

Ebtida arrives seeking a hat-trick from a 9lb higher mark, yet still carries bottom-weight in a stronger contest, so commands respect with George Buckell again booked to ride. Wild Approach has raced consistently since recording a couple of victories on the AW earlier in the year and is deserving of a first success on turf, whilst Miningold will be well suited by a return to 5f. However, in the absence of a strong fancy, a real flier is taken on the lightly raced three-year-old CAESAR'S COMET. He's potentially better than he's shown in handicaps so far, and if able to lie up closer to the early pace could prove strong stamina wise late in the race.
