      Verdict

      You're Hired scored at Bath when reverting to a mile but has something to find with Sky Defender on last year’s form. The latter could be dangerous if allowed to poach an early lead and the going was against Classical Wave returning from a break at Sandown. The City's Phantom was just beaten at Leicester after winning at Bath but steps up a couple of grades. SIR RUMI didn’t quite last home over 1m6f at Haydock but earlier form at this trip puts him bang in the picture here.
