In depth

Verdict

Kings Topic and Got To Be Cash should go well but Bank On Him is put forward as the one they all have to beat. The selection was well beaten last time at Wolverhampton, but he is dropped in grade and at this level he could be capable of scoring. Kings Topic has won both of his last two races and is respected as a live danger, but this is more difficult and he may just find one too good. Got To Be Cash won well when defeating Shape Up at Folkestone last time, but this is more difficult and she may struggle to score again under a penalty. Of the remainder, Fife And Drum could have place prospects, but we are happy to stick with Bank On Him as our idea of the winner.
