    Verdict

    David O'Meara has won three of the last four so Eccleston is not easily overlooked. But Richard Fahey won the 2013 renewal and runs the unbeaten DON'T TOUCH. The latter beat older horses at Wolverhampton last month and it was soft ground when he won his maiden at Newcastle back in May. Stablemate Lexi's Hero would prefer faster going but Tatlisu ran well in last year's renewal ahead of several of these, though finished behind runner-up Spinatrix. Poyle Vinnie beat Tatlisu and Mass Rally in testing ground at Hamilton last month but Fast Track may struggle if it turns soft. There is little between runner-up Shore Step and Al Khan on their running at York last month while Greeb may not have finished improving yet and sports his owner's first colours ahead of the three-year-old Mukhmal. Barnet Fair arrives on the back of a big run at Goodwood, where he beat a couple of these, and could go well.
