Verdict

DYNAMO WALT bids for a course and distance treble off only a 3lb higher mark. He gets the nod ahead of Doctor Sardonicus, third over 6f here last time ahead of Vimy Ridge, Upavon and Come On Dave. Al Fareej competed in pattern company after winning his maiden last year but makes a belated return to action, but Sleepy Sioux is not badly weighted if at her best and Secretinthepark won a higher grade sprint at Ascot on his penultimate start.
