Verdict
It’s a long time since the error-prone Enrilo got his head in front and he may not be the force of old. Tea Clipper has been knocking on the door lately but he’s another on a long losing run and The Little Yank has been out of sorts for a while, as has Unanswered Prayers. Tweed Skirt has won around here but stamina is unproven over this trip while Dalamoi was pulled up when favourite on his reappearance at Chepstow and ideally prefers much softer ground. HIDDEN HEROICS was upsides Tea Clipper when falling at Ascot and then won at Ludlow and Dan Skelton’s unexposed six-year-old may be worth sticking with.
