Verdict

HIGHLAND SKY won over today’s trip before placing over 2m at Goodwood last time. He can return to winning ways back over 1m6f today and is preferred to Swordbill. The latter was runner-up at Catterick recently and headgear is applied for the first time while Golden Image had been running well over shorter distances here before disappointing at Newbury. Psychotic won a lower grade contest at Leicester a week ago and carries 6lb extra but Mr Fickle returns to the Flat on a decent mark having won over hurdles last month.
