Verdict
A poor seller and Corking could be interesting if allowed to take his chance, however Lady Jinks looks a safer bet and gets the vote. The selection gained her first win at Windsor three starts back and has been keeping better company than this since. Now back to a more realistic level she should go well despite being untested on ground like this. Corking has missed several engagements of late, whether because of ground fears or health problems, and the market may help guide to his chances as the top-rated in the line-up. Milton Bradley has done well to get Dungleddy Star rated as low as 15 and a bigger danger may be My Beautiful who should be fit from racing over the jumps. Royal Soverin and Ask Nicely both have bits of form that would see them go close but neither is consistent enough to offer up, whilst Paul The Carpet should be watched in the betting from a shrewd stable. A weak race, and we will side with Lady Jinks.
