Verdict

Far too tight to call with confidence with just 3lb between the sextet on official ratings. Danzay and Cheeky Rascal were separated by a mere nose when clashing at Goodwood last month but both were relatively disappointing last time and it's hard to choose between them. Chingachgook and Institution both have looked good enough to win a small race but might be better served back in handicap company whilst Frolic is surely better than her reappearance run. She could prove a different proposition back on better ground and with the application of a first-time visor. The choice falls upon PADDY THE CHEF as he produced quite a decent performance here in a better race last week when filling the minor placing behind a couple of progressive types in Tahreek and Jurz.
