Verdict

MISTER CAMACHO remains a maiden but shaped well with a view to stepping back up in trip when third at Doncaster (11.9f) 10 days ago and he gets the narrow vote to come out on top with forecast ground conditions also holding no fears. Golden Keeper and Quercus Robur are a couple of others to consider.

  1. MISTER CAMACHO (IRE)
  2. GOLDEN KEEPER
  3. QUERCUS ROBUR
