Verdict
Despite being well backed, PERSEID proved no match for the in-form Amuse Me at Sedgefield last time and is 2lb higher here. But he handles soft ground and will be in front and out of trouble so could recoup losses. Knight Bachelor has been given a break since disappointing at Southwell in June and it would be no surprise to see him bounce back with his yard in good form. Towcester third Vaillant Creek and Aintree second Silver Shuffle are obvious contenders while Come On Sunshine was a course winner as a juvenile, though recent efforts suggest something is currently amiss.
