Verdict
Whispering Royal can improve on a third at Wincanton and Cannon Rock is an interesting recruit having won on the Flat for Godolphin last year. Great Valley was runner-up at Kempton on his second outing but still beaten more than 20 lengths. KARAKTERE D’ENFER may have finished last of three at Doncaster but ran green and made mistakes. He still wasn’t beaten far and this looks a good opportunity to recoup losses.
