    Verdict

    Chelmsford winner Royal Pleasure has now scored three times on the all-weather though has yet to win on Turf. But COMMANCHE FALLS (NAP) has an excellent strike rate having won eight times so far and has made a winning reappearance in each of the last three seasons. Michael Dods’ charge is only 2lb higher than when landing the Stewards’ Cup at Goodwood last summer and gets the vote. Intrinsic Bond failed to get a clear run at Ripon last time and steps back up in trip while Rathbone is has returned to a winning mark if back to his best.
