Verdict
Auspicion beat Henpecked over track and trip at the start of the month and is preferred to another course and distance winner in Archipeligo, who has an 11lb hike in the weights to contend with. Therthaar found one too good again at Haydock last time but Lopes Dancer won his maiden here in March and drops down a grade. Perceived was narrowly beaten at Beverley recently when HERNANDOSHIDEAWAY was third. But that was the latter’s best effort for some time and Michael Dods’ charge looks set to finally take advantage of a slide down the weights off his current mark.
