Verdict

Missionaire had Herschel behind when third over a slightly longer trip here last month but isn't one to rely on. Satwa Ballerina is also inconsistent and Prince Of Thebes' best years appear to be behind him. Cantor was only beaten a short-head over 1m4f at Wolverhampton last time and has claims but it could be worth risking PENBRYN tackling this distance for the first time. He was noted staying on well when second over 1m1f at Wolverhampton last month and races off the same mark here.
