Verdict
Regimental has picked up a penalty for scoring at Haydock eight days ago but this represents a drop in grade for Ann Duffield's charge, who can go close again. Preference, however, is for COAX who won at Beverley last month and wasn't beaten far when fourth off this mark at Chepstow last time. Pivot Bridge, runner-up at Nottingham on his reappearance, didn't build on that at Windsor next time while Inca Blue will probably need further help from the handicapper before he loses his maiden tag.
