Verdict
Another poor race and finding a confident selection but Embassy Lord should be good enough to give them all something to think about if he copes with his first try on this surface. Bajan Storm, Salut Saint Cloud and Summerise are others would are capable of getting involved for at least a place - while it would also be dangerous to rule out Cheverak Forest and Stamford Blue; despite them not having the most reliable of profiles. However, Embassy Lord, who hails from a yard that can do little wrong at present, has plenty in his favour as he drops back a furlong today. The booking of Darryll Holland, in addition to his favourable low draw make the selection impossible to ignore on these terms and this gelded son of Mind Games is the one to be on here. A move for either Cheverak Forest of Amwell Brave in the first time blinkers will be interesting for the each way money.
