Verdict
Compton Prince was only beaten half-a-length at Chelmsford when last seen in March but we prefer stable companion QUICKASWECAN, who is a previous course and distance winner back in the right grade and on a winning mark. The three-year-old Najd could be interesting making his handicap debut for a powerful stable but Capolavoro has more on his plate than when scoring at Wolverhampton. Hipz is preferred to Noble Deed and Generalyse of the others.
