Verdict

Hey Ho Let's Go has failed to threaten since winning this last year with Secret Handsheikh back in third. The latter reversed running at Brighton back in April while Symbol of Hope had the measure of Bluebell Time when landing a double at Bath in May. But THEREHEGOES has gone close since scoring at Windsor last month when Level Up finished runner-up and he gets the vote. The latter has yet to win on Turf while Penguin Island and Ray Vonn haven't won anywhere.
