An interesting sprint which features no shortage of Ascot regulars, namely May's 1-2 of Louie De Palma and Vegas Boy. Others worthy of a mention include the eased-in-grade Polybius, the newly cheek-pieced Sunsprite and the out of form 2017 race winner Lightning Charlie. However, we'll row confidently in with the re-emerging NORMANDY BARRIERE who finished a close third to a couple of useful opponents at Haydock last week. He is very nicely handicapped from a reduced mark of 87 (more so when factoring in Izzy Clifton's 7lb claim) and with a very strong back catalogue of Ascot form on his CV he should go mightily close.
