Verdict

LAUGHIFUWANT notched up his first success since his 2020-win in this at Galway at the start of the month and remains fairly treated after an 8 lb rise (took this off 12 lb higher 3 years ago). If he backs that up he looks sure to go close. Stablemate Crystal Black is an obvious contender after his easy victory over C&D a fortnight ago. BMW Mile winner Coeur d'Or and Irish Cambridgeshire regular Saltonstall are also high on the shortlist.
