Verdict

Plenty are in with a shout but STATE ACTION rates just the pick of these weights and with the prospect of better to come he can follow up his C&D success. Coeur d'Or heads the list of dangers on the back of his good Royal Ascot Hunt Cup sixth. although Morse, Verhoyen, No More Porter and Casanova can all have a say too.
