Verdict

A wide open contest rounds off the card and plenty would have chances on their best form but the principals look to be Harem Scarem, Tudor King, and Vidi Caesar and the vote goes to Harem Scarem. The selection was a fair second behind the well handicapped Broadgate Flyer last time and a reproduction of that effort should suffice here especially as this shorter trip is sure to suit. Tudor King has dropped to a favourable mark but he has yet to find his top form and although he was a fair fourth behind Tresor Preziniere last time he will need to improve on that to win this. Vidi Ceaser was well behind the selection last time and off the same terms here he has plenty to find. Of the remainder Romabny Dream is from a yard in form and is worth noting in the market but in a race where stakes should be kept to a minimum for the winner we return to Harem Scarem.]
