Verdict

Mythical Madness returns from a break but that' is rarely a problem for one from his yard and he did make a winning reappearance this year at Windsor in May. One Pekan looks certain to get involved with Cameron Noble taking off 7lb. The partnership was only beaten a short head at Chelmsford 11 days ago, though Roger Varian's five year old is 4lb higher here. FRANKLIN D was far from disgraced in the Cambridgeshire considering he was drawn on the 'wrong' side. He also ran well on his only previous start on Polytrack and won on fast going at Sandown subsequently and may have more scope than these rivals. This looks on the sharp side for Royal Warranty but he is usually thereabouts and makes more appeal than Derulo and last month's course and distance winner Starlit Cantata, who is upped in grade. Modernism and Gaelic Silver have also won over track and trip so can't be ignored.
