Verdict
Three-year-olds have a moderate record in this but Kamchatka looks well enough weighted to be considered. Copperwood is fast approaching his 100th outing and has been very busy over the past few weeks. He's holding his form well and should be concerned in the finish but Highland Duke is on his highest mark and looks a few pounds high at present. STARWATCH has found 7f too short on his last two starts and is better over this trip. He's on the same mark as when chasing home Ree's Rascal at Newbury a month ago and can gain the ninth success of his career.
