Verdict
Astigos races off the same mark as when runner-up in this 12 months ago and had Hansupfordetroit behind when winning at Chepstow in April. Sutter's Mill scrambled home at Ludlow last month but looks worth opposing here off a 6lb higher mark. Mrsrobin has changed stables yet again but Cabragh has slipped to a fair mark and could be rejuvenated by blinkers. STEEL NATIVE (NAP) is a regular here and only 2lb higher than when scoring over 3m last season. Second on his reappearance, he’ll strip fitter today.
