Verdict

SEBS SENSEI was not beaten far in fifth here last time and Hector Crouch takes 7lb off his back today. He can confirm running with Jackpot, Ambella and El Mirage to land this. Divine Rule may find a 5lb rise beyond him after scoring over 7f at Lingfield but Dreaming Again and Movie Magic are not easily dismissed having both gone close over today's trip on their latest outings.
