Verdict

It would be no surprise to see First In Command go close on his comeback as his yard is in terrific form. Diamond Charlie has already won twice on the Polytrack this year while Sandfrankskipsgo won at Wolverhampton before finishing fifth at Epsom and shouldn't be far away. Jimmy Fortune gets on well with the speedy BLANC DE CHINE and Peter Makin's grey may well be good enough to get off the mark at the first time of asking this year with the ground in her favour. Titus Gent wasn't beaten far when fourth at Sandown last time and is another to consider.
