Verdict
White Nile was a hot favourite over 1m4f at Thirsk last month on the back of a good run at York but could only manage fourth. Mister Impatience has been disappointing since finishing second to Ruler Of The World in the Chester Vase in May while stablemate Discay was well beaten at Musselburgh last time and Sirvino needs to bounce back from a poor run at Ayr. Brockwell's best form is over further and Almagest is also an out-and-out stayer but Linguine has claims if forgiven his run over 2m at Ascot, where he weakened rapidly on turning for home. JONNY DELTA finished ahead of both Brockwell and High Office in the Cesarewitch and races off the same mark as when third at Haydock earlier. He went close over 1m5f at Ayr last month and deserves a change of luck.
