    Verdict

    Thataboy has lost his form since landing a double on the Polytrack and was well beaten at Bath earlier this month. MINLEY is preferred despite dropping back in distance as he likes to race prominently and this poor handicap won't take much winning. Artemis has shown no improvement for a slide down the weights and Dove Mountain was still beaten 10 lengths when placed over a longer trip here back in February. Khelfan is unexposed and makes more appeal than Ellingham.
