Verdict

CAP DU NORD is potentially on a good mark on the pick of his efforts last season, including when runner-up to the well-handicapped Royale Pagaille (clear of rest) in this race off this mark, and should go well again on the back of a promising run in the Badger Beer. Fortescue and Canelo found the Ladbrokes Trophy at Newbury too demanding but should make much more of an impact here.
