Verdict

Lion Hearted has been another huge success story for Mick Appleby, and can go well again, but the cut back to seven furlongs is a concern given he stays a mile well, and marginal preference is for PERFECT HUSTLER, who can be excused a couple of disappointments since winning over this trip at Ascot in July, and he remains on a pptentially lenient mark. That comment also applies to Quick Breath, who won first time out last year, and could go well again after a break.
