Verdict

Vazon ran well in defeat last time out at Beverley behind a well regarded sort and he appears to have the most to fear from Norse Dancer was a good winner on his debut and is sure to have come on for the run and he has more scope than most in this contest. Pinkerton was well beaten at Royal Ascot but he should go close in this on his previous form. Double Obsession is a well bred newcomer and is worth a cautionary look in the market.
