Verdict
As You Like won at Warwick last month on only his fourth career start but there is a question mark on this quicker surface. Princess Roania will probably make the running again but is woefully one-paced. Yes Daddy has been tried on the all-weather and over fences lately and is still 4lb higher than his last winning mark and Gask Ridge remains out of sorts. BAMBI DU NOYER has been raised 6lb since his neck second here last month and also steps up a grade but, on recent form, still looks the most likely winner.
