Verdict
Divertimenti carries a penalty for his narrow win at Warwick but is at least in form, which can't be said of the majority of today's rivals. Chambers isn't badly handicapped but needs to bounce back from a shocking effort over C&D in August, while Chepstow fourth Kenswick appear to have two ways of running. Mister Ben Vereen is poorly drawn for one who likes to race up with the pace but Prince Of Passion could go close from stall two. Know No Fear finished third at Wolverhampton last Thursday but we'll give a tentative vote to TITAN DIAMOND, whose fourth at the same track last month was his best effort for some time. Racheal Kneller knows the gelding well and he's undoubtedly nicely treated at present.
