Verdict
Guildenstern was most impressive when successful last week and is taken to follow up at the expense of Cree and Withering Lady. Hughie Morrison's charge raced a bit keenly in that Folkestone event, and he had to wait for a run through into the final two furlongs before lengthening well to win off top weight. He appears to be on the upgrade and should defy a six pound penalty. Cree contested some decent events last season and his last effort when just four lengths behind Forzeen over course and distance gives him a good chance at the weights today. Meanwhile Withering Lady enters the argument on her two promising efforts here this year. Bold Cheverak wasn't beaten too far by the selection last time and looks the best of the others. However there should be plenty more to come from Guidenstern who is our confident choice.
