There is plenty of early pace in this and First Excel will find it harder to dominate this time as he bids to follow up his recent C&D success. Appleberry and Declamation are two to watch in the market as both have claims on their best form. African Blessing is feared under his good claimer but the vote goes to VIVA VERGLAS. The six-year-old landed back to back successes here in the spring under this rider. He makes plenty of appeal back in this grade and below his last winning mark.
