Verdict
Lulu The Zulu drops back in trip after scoring over a mile at Chester while Wandsworth has leading claims with a recent comeback at Bath under his belt. But BRAVE ECHO made the most of a much lower rating on Turf to score at Goodwood last time and is still well treated compared to his best form on the all-weather. He gets the nod though Showboating has slipped down the weights and is not without a chance. Oblitereight has done all his winning so far on the Polytrack while neither Realize nor Despot could cope with a rise in the weights last time for their earlier wins.
