Pachello, Danehill Stroller and Louphole look the main contenders with the nod going to the last named. The selection has been in unbelievably consistent form this season hardly finishing out of the frame. He won on his penultimate run at Bath when two lengths infront of Danehill Stroller who is noe one pond better off. He then finished an eye catching second to Caustic Wit at Epsom last time out. With conditions to suit here he is taken to land himself back in the winners enclosure once again. Pachello carries top weight but was behind the selection at Epsom last time and to reverse the form will prove to be a tough task so for the winner we return to Louphole.
