In depth
Verdict
A small but competitive field goes to post for this classified stakes and all can be given a chance on there best form. However we will take a dance on Lesath. The James Fanshaw trained colt was a fair third behind Vengeance last time and a reproduction of that effort would make him hard to beat. Ayun rates the main danger he was a fair fourth behind Jubal Surraj last time but the step up in trip is not sure to suit. Montnatre is from a yard in form and he goes well under these conditions so he is another that could go well at a fair price. Chaffinchh is another that could go well but he has not progressed as expected this season Gryngrolette is another from a top yard and is worth a cautionary look in the market.
