Cobalty Isle has changed yards since last seen in June and has to give plenty of weight to younger horses. One More Chance made all to win a maiden race over a mile here last time and an apprentice’s allowance negates a penalty but SILCHESTER is still preferred. The latter made a winning start here earlier in the month when returning an easy winner and normal progress should see David Simcock’s colt make another bold bid. Assimile finished a modest second at Newcastle recently and the newcomer Jumeirah Street is worth a second glance for any support in the betting.
