Verdict
Noble Patron ran his best race so far over course and distance in April but TARAASHOQ (NAP) has more scope. He carried his owner’s second colours behind winner Baaeed at Leicester earlier this month but was keeping on well in the closing stages. The form of that race is working out well so William Haggas gelding looks the one to be on. Tribal Art carries 7lb extra for winning at Ayr but should run his race again while Mo'assess is a half-brother to three winners and the Pivotal newcomer is preferred to Natural Colour of the Godolphin runners.
