Verdict
Vive La Difference will enjoy the going but he’s not really fired since returning from a short break. Simoon has been racing over further but his only win came over this trip and at around this time of year so Ed Walker’s charge is interesting. Consultant is unexposed but an absence since the spring is off-putting and Why We Dream ran only three days ago and carries a penalty. Redgrave has probably be running better than recent form figures would suggest but we’ll take a chance that a visor revives SARYSHAGANN as David O’Meara’s grey bolted up on soft ground at Ayr before failing to last home at Haydock. Secret Return is ultra-consistent and should run his race again. 2.35
