Verdict
Like most of the races here, this is not easy to solve, with nothing standing out. Middleton Grey did show signs of a return to form at Wolverhampton, and is interesting off his current mark, being a dual course and distance winner. Katiypour was a beaten favourite last time but is sure to go well, judged on his recent efforts, while Grey Cossack has had chances but is saddled with topweight. Flying Treaty is nicely weighted and his second to Fast Track reads well enough for him to get the vote. A wind operation seems to have done him the world of good and in a wide-open contest he has as good a chance as any.
