Duke Cosimo has produced better consistency this term and should be on the premises and Invincible Ridge will benefit from for his first run for over a year when not beaten at all far at Chester for a yard that excels in handling sprinters. Tangerine Trees is still capable despite advancing years and Sir Billy Wright has every chance if forgiven his latest below par run when out the back at Windsor on ground quicker than ideal. Previous efforts were solid though and he's expected to bounce back and contend. Son Of Africa has contested much better races than this and cannot be ruled out off topweight but the choice is SHIPYARD. Mick Appleby's gelding simply didn't get the run of the race in a hot Musselburgh sprint last time yet wasn't beaten far and previous efforts this term when bang there at Haydock and Ascot read very well on this return to 6f.
