In depth
Verdict
Collect Art is holding his form well after landing a double earlier in the year and his latest third in a higher grade sprint at Windsor gives him every chance. Six Wives is 8lb lower than when winning at Wolverhampton in February and has claims, as does Rio Royale, who has improved on the Polytrack since his win at Brighton last August. Doc Hay has a recent run under his belt and has scope for improvement, but a chance is taken on MYMUMSAYSIMTHEBEST. Gary Moore's charge went close over C&D off an 8lb higher mark in 2009, but missed the whole of last year and a should be spot on now after a couple of recent runs.
