An open classified stakes can go to Parnassian, who is marginally preferred to the bang-in-form Hazewind on these terms. All Quiet and the unexposed High Reserve are bubbling under on the list of alternatives, with the latter given preference, as she is getting plenty of weight from her male counterparts today. It is interesting that James Fanshawe has taken this route with his charge and she is definitely one to bear in mind if she is supported. There could also be more to come from All Quiet, as she tries a mile for only the second time in her career to date. However, her overall profile leaves her with a little to find and she is probably best watched in this company. Hazewind has already paid his way this season, having won three times since June. He does have a little to prove on the ground though and may be worth taking on, as his best form has come over seven furlongs so far. Which brings us to Parnassian, who has all the ability in the world when he consents to put his mind to the task. The son of Sabrehill does act well on the predicted going though and, as he gets 1lb from a rival officially rated 5lb inferior to him, Parnassian has a cracking chance to reward those that keep faith with him over a trip that ideally suits this afternoon.
