Verdict
Qualitair Wings can step up on recent form to account for Young Mr Grace, St Savarin and Zanjeer. Qualitair Wings has not been in the best of form this season but suddenly showed some of his old dash when second to Nimello at Epsom 11 days ago, the soft ground helping his cause. Although he is not well-handicapped, James Hetherton's five-year-old need only reproduce that latest effort to take a hand in the finish. The one negative is if the ground dries up but apart from that he has a good jockey in the plate again and should make a bold bid to register his fourth career win. Having returned to winning ways at Carlisle at the start of the month, Young Mr Grace was disappointing at Doncaster subsequently, while St Savarin is better drawn than when a creditable third behind Burley Flame here last time. Zanjeer posted a very good third at Carlisle despite having his fair share of weight and is another to consider, but we shall rely on Qualitair Wings.
