There are doubts about some of these horses including the respected
Plutonian (ground),
Finniston Farm (trip), and the lightly raced
Mountain Hunter (sizeable absence to overcome).
Cote D'Azur will be in there pitching early and should run a solid race (placed off this mark in the 2017 Cambridgeshire), whilst
Another Eclipse finished runner-up in this contest in 2017. However, the least risky option is probably
BANDITRY. Although in excess of his last winning Flat mark (by 8lb), he's won over hurdles since then and has posted a couple of decent efforts on the Knavesmire at York this summer. The forecast ground conditions will hold few fears.
- Banditry
- Cote d'Azur
