Verdict

Hard to make a strong case for any of these and a purely speculative vote goes to C'MON YOU IRONS. He went close in better company at Goodwood on his penultimate start and a repeat effort would be good enough to land this. Commandingpresence was winning for the only time in 52 starts when scoring over 5f at Folkestone last month, while Witchry had been placed four times in a row before his latest poor effort at Chepstow. Dancing Welcome has won on the Polytrack here but has yet to score on turf and Elhamri hasn't tasted success on this surface since 2008.
