Verdict

Tucker's Law has run well in two starts at Salisbury but Rod Millman's colt disappointed on his debut at Bath and again at Warwick last time so he looks best watched first time in a nursery off a mark of 73 in a race taken to go to ANTONIUS MORIS, who gets the verdict with Ginger Ted rated the best of the rest. The selection was good value for his Warwick success first time out and has run well in defeat subsequently at Windsor and Chester, latterly in a nursery when two lengths third behind Transfixed. Tom Dascombe's colt was never able to get involved in the Windsor Castle Stakes the time before but he looks worth another chance in this grade, racing off the same mark as at Chester. Ginger Ted has yet to be placed in any of his four starts and is hard to recommend but he may do better now in a nursery off a light weight, while Lairy was well held in a selling nursery last time and is likely to struggle again here. Kevin Ryan's Masked Dance has run promisingly in all three starts so far and looks reasonably well treated on a mark of 73 for his debut in a nursery but preference is for Antonius Moris, who is taken to resume winning ways.
