In depth
Verdict
Radiator Rooney gets the vote in the opener with Regal Royale and Perlachy rating the main dangers. The selection was a good second behind Muktasab last time out, despite finding trouble in running. He remains on the same mark and in the hope that he gets a clear run here he looks the one to be on. Regal Royale rates the main danger as he beat Tilsworth Charlie last time. However all his best form is over a longer trip and he looks opposable on that basis. Perlachy was third behind Obe Royal last time and he is another with place claims, but consistency is not his strong point. Kempsey is best when allowed to dominate but as there are plenty that like to be up with the pace he looks opposable, while Dodaa looks weighted up to his best and has been done no favours by the draw. With all this in mind, for the winner we return to Radiator Rooney who was unlucky last time out.
