A competitive field goes to post for this contest and the main protagonists look to be Coat Of Honour, Mujhud and Claradotnet and we will take a chance on Coat Of Honour. Sir Mark Prescotts charge was a good third off this mark behind Kuster last time out and a reproduction of that effort would make him hard to beat. Mujhud rates the main danger he was a good third behind Sovereign Dreamer last time out and that form has since been franked so he has definite place claims. Claradotnet is one of the least exposed in the field and won well last time out when defeating Flash Of Gold she could have been let in lightly for this her handicap debut. Of the remainder Fabulous Jet goes well on the ground but he looks to have plenty of weight for what he has actually achieved so we are happy to side with Coat Of Honour.
