Verdict

Most can be given a chance though Tommy G is penalised for a recent win at Musselburgh and Bringitonboris is upped 4lb after winning here. Plymouth Rock beat Kuwait Shield when scoring in soft ground at Haydock and can figure again while Black Friday and Redcar winner Cruyff Turn have form over 7f but have something to prove over this far. Dubai Acclaim won here in July and is fitted with a tongue-tie today but CATCH MY BREATH is only 3lb higher than when scoring here earlier and went close in a tougher race than this at Goodwood last week.
