In depth

Verdict

Cape Canaveral gets the confident vote here with Cooldine King and Bob Ar Aghaidh the others for the shortlist. The selection is a big strapping gelding who won well last time out when defeating Nathos at Fontwell. He will be suited by the easing ground and should come on for that run, his first after an absence. He is likely to appreciate further in time but should have too much for his rivals here. Bob Ar Aghaidh looks the main danger as he was a good winner when defeating Tollbrae at Uttoxeter last month. He had his rivals well strung out on that occasion and looks a live threat to our selection here. Cooldine King caught the eye when finishing strongly to beat Capt Pugwash at Sandown last month. However, he got the run of the race on that day and should find it tougher here. Of the rest, Easibrook Jane won well when defeating Eva So Charming at Plumpton last month, so has to be considered here with conditions once again to suit. This looks fairly competitive with a number of in-form rivals in opposition, but we are happy to side with Cape Canaveral.
