Verdict
Jamie Moore won this a year ago for his father and the pair will be hoping to repeat the process with Whinging Willie, a winner at Brighton last time but who doesn't have the best of form around this track unlike LAST MINUTE LISA (NAP). Sylvester Kirk's filly has won and been placed twice in three starts here and arrives in good form after scoring comfortably at Goodwood. A penalty makes things more difficult but Brendan Powell can steer her home. Golden Jubilee has been going well but is back up to his highest ever mark while Stephen Hero completed a double over hurdles in June and could prove best of the remainder.
