        Verdict

        CORINTHIA KNIGHT (NAP) makes most appeal in this having finished ahead of Caspian Prince and Encore d'Or at York last week and beating Gracious John and Tropics when scoring at Wolverhampton back in April. He also beat the latter when finishing runner-up in last year’s renewal - Archie Watson’s sprinter can go one better this time. Tropics was winning for the fifth time here when successful on his latest start though that was back in June while Muthmir has a shout on an earlier length defeat in the Epsom Dash, though has missed his last two engagements. Blue De Vega is preferred to stablemate Jumira Bridge off his current mark but Puds is upped in class.
