Verdict
Carys' Commodity goes for the hat-trick after victories at Fakenham and Wincanton but may have to give best to GLYNN. Like stablemate Clarendon Street, Jerry McGrath’s mount has had wind surgery since last seen but he is potentially much better than his current mark having won his only start under Rules here last season with the proverbial ton in hand. Doctor Dex has fallen out of love with chasing but is best watched back over hurdles and Ascot third Ecco has plenty to prove over this longer trip. Eaton Hill looks the pick of the remainder.
