In depth
Verdict
Loyal Tycoon impressed on his latest appearance over this course and distance and looks to be well handicapped on the best of his form. He was only denied a hat-trick of turf victories last season when beaten by his stablemate in a valuable race at York and races here off a similar mark. His trainer has his horses in good order and looks to have found a good opportunity here for his charge. Nick Littmoden runs three of his most consistent sprinters here with all of them closely matched at the weights. Peruvian Chief may be the pick of the three as he runs well fresh, has course form and is a six furlong specialist. J M W Turner will have his supporters after winning recently at Wolverhampton, however this is his first try on this surface and is bested watched here. James Stark may prefer five furlongs these days and is possibly poorly handicapped. Middleton Grey will do well to win here having proved himself more capable over further. The youngster Ronny From Donny was impressive in victory last time out over course and distance and rates the biggest danger to the selection.
