Verdict

If Electric Qatar can transfer his recent improvement on Polytrack to Turf then he has an obvious chance, despite a 6lb penalty, though this hasn't been a great race for three-year-olds in the past. Silvanus arrives in top form and has won seven times in his career but this is his highest-ever mark. TYFOS was in excellent form at this time last year and looked on the way back at Newcastle last time. He's drawn in the centre so should get a good position and can return to winning ways. The veteran Green Park likes this track but is 7lb higher than when scoring here last month so it's Jedward who looks the main threat as he ran very well in a handicap at York last time and likes soft going.
