Verdict

Crowdmania has arguably the best form but has found it difficult to get his head in front since rattling up four victories early in the year. ART OBSESSION may prove a safer bet given he will have come on for a belated seasonal debut at Wolverhampton where he finished runner-up ahead of Jacquotte Delahaye. Beautiful Stranger returned to winning ways stepped up to a mile at Ayr last time and In Focus won over the same distance in between a couple of modest efforts.
