Verdict
EDGE is a regular in this type of race and has been narrowly beaten in his last two starts. Serena Brotherton has travelled a long way for the ride and she can steer him to another victory. Master Of Heaven has won off this mark over the track and trip and makes a quick reappearance after a fair run at Chelmsford last week while Oceanus didn't have the run of the race when last seen at Redcar in May and his stable have had a few winners in recent weeks. Simon Walker's presence on Dancing Dragon suggests George Baker means business with the three-year-old, though she would have to be forgiven a poor run at Windsor.
