Verdict

A tough race to call with the field rated within 4lb of each other. Saying that, CAPTAIN CAT is the least exposed and the one with most potential for further progress. He opened his account at Newmarket in May with a four-length defeat of subsequent dual winner Lahaag and can make a winning return. Gaul Wood is a more recent winner with a victory at Sandown three weeks ago to his credit while Gifted Girl is another lightly-raced sort capable of improvement. Jake's Destiny has yet to win this year but has been running well in decent handicaps and Love Your Looks will also find life easier having competed in Listed company of late.
