In depth
Verdict
Cosi Fan Tutte has had plenty of chances this season, but this appears to be the easiest, and he can get the better of Rolex Free and Another Con. Martin Pipe's gelding contested much better events at the start of this campaign, including a classified race at Windsor where he finished third to Hatch A Plan. He dropped into selling company last time when just pipped by Go Green at Chepstow. The third was well beaten off in that contest so it may have been an above average race. Rolex Free had a tough task at the weights in a handicap last time and in contrast is very well treated in this contest, particularly with today's rival Blue Savanna. Although disappointing on the turf recently, Another Con is a better performer on the all-weather and looks set to take a hand in the finish here. Boogie Magic may prove best of the remainder, but Cosi Fan Tutte is easily the form horse and gets the nod.
