Recent winners Blue Trojan, Highland Reel and Lifted Way will be strong contenders to land this valuable prize but we will take a chance on Finished Article. David Elsworth's gelding wasn't far behind stablemate Highland Reel at Goodwood last time, but has a great chance of reversing the form with that rival as he was given an impossible amount to do, having still had only one behind him when pulled to the outside a furlong and a half out. Blue Trojan will a big danger having comfortably landed a listed handicap at Haydock last time. Meanwhile Lifted Way still looks well treated despite recent handicap success's here and on the all-weather at Lingfield. Lifted Way's stable-mate Binanti has some decent form form last term and should be noted in the market, but for the winner we return to Finished Article.
