Verdict

Ed Dunlop makes the trip up from Newmarket with DAGUENEAU his lone runner. This three-year-old is rapidly improving now over staying trips and his trainer will be aware that this gelding is likely to go up far more than 6lb which is the penalty carried here. Becky The Thatcher will provide the toughest opposition. This mare stays extremely strongly and clearly enjoys it round here. Top-weight Wind Place And Sho is pretty closely matched with the latter at these weights so can't be ruled out completely.
