Verdict

One Master won this last year with Sir Dancealot back in fifth though today’s soft going is not ideal for either. The latter was also beaten in testing going at Newbury last month when GLORIOUS JOURNEY won the Hungerford. Safe Voyage and Hey Gaman also fell victim to Charlie Appleby’s charge on that occasion and he can run a big race in this. Speak In Colours found Sir Dancealot too good in the Lennox at Goodwood earlier but City Light arrives in fine form having beaten Graignes in a Group 3 trial race last month and is a leading contender for the home team. Waldpfad ran well in the Sprint Cup at Haydock and stays this extra furlong so the German raider is preferred to the progressive Listed winner Wasmya of the remainder.
