Verdict

Panko looked to be back to his best last time when winning easily at Goodwood and a 6lb penalty may well not be enough to slow him down now but he does bump into one who may be improving at a quicker rate than the handicapper can keep up with in ESSPEEGEE. He’s managed to transfer his already progressive AW form onto the turf and may well be able to make it seven wins from his last eight starts here. Camakasi is a solid yardstick to measure the form by and he looks to be working his way back to form but does need a strong gallop to be seen at his best while Paddy A will be thereabouts if he transfers his recent AW form back to turf.
  1. Esspeegee
  2. Panko
  3. Camakasi
