Verdict
Heidi's Dash can get the better of Cape Unknown, with Mytton's Bell and Talcen Gwyn best of the rest. Heidi's Dash caught the eye when doing all bar win at Bath last time. Roger Charlton's filly was in the lead until right on the line when nabbed by Folga on what was her first outing on Turf since last May. She has leading claims here and can account for Cape Unknown who it has to be said did not appear the heartiest of battlers when outgunned by Look Of Eagles at Brighton. Nevertheless it was still an improved effort by Gerard Butler's charge who is the main danger. Mytonn's Bell was well held by Blades Boy at Hamilton but Robert Kingscote takes off a handy seven-pounds, while Talcen Gwyn left the money in the bookies' satchels when only fifth behind Regal Dream at Brighton. He has topweight but should at least hold Campeon on earlier form. Heidi's Dash is the pick on latest form and can duly go one better.
