Verdict
This looks an open contest with Narjes going close here last time while Cafe Milano represents last year’s winning yard and placed over track and trip on his penultimate start. Uther Pendragon is usually in the mix without winning while the likes of Tebay and Laurentia have previous winning form at this level but EL CONQUISTADOR has the most scope. He’s switched yards since beaten a length in a first-time tongue-tie over course and distance last month and Stuart Williams’ new charge is taken to open his account.
