Verdict

A slight doubt remains about Franco Is My Name over this distance and IRON CONDOR is preferred. Twice a winner over C&D earlier this year, he did well to go so close in better company on his penultimate start and found the lack of pace against him in a tactical affair here last time. This looks a better opportunity for James Eustace's charge. Sing Sweetly and Bariolo have chances and the American import Pat's Legacy is worth noting on his British debut.
