Verdict
Both Dialogue and Jontleman finished runner-up on their latest outings, though the latter's run at Lingfield looks superior form. Whispered Times won here in April and has since gone close again. Collateral form has him closely matched with NO QUARTER but the latter is just preferred having scored over track and trip in May and being seemingly better drawn than the former. My New Angel and Whipphound are others to consider back over 7f in an open affair.
