In depth
Verdict
It's worth sticking with the progressive YOU'RELIKEMEFRANK here. He's won three of his last four starts over C&D and, despite taking on better opposition today, John Balding's sprinter should have the race run to suit with both Feelin Foxy and Sir Geoffrey capable of ensuring a fast pace. The latter makes most appeal of that duo, while Breathless Kiss has recorded all three wins over the minimum trip and can figure after a couple of recent starts over 6f. Ebraam's most recent winning form has been in claimers but he could still make the frame in this company.
