Verdict
A lottery of a sprint with a token vote going to ANCIENT ASTRONAUT, who scored over track and trip earlier this year. Ninjago missed an engagement at Ascot yesterday having ended a long losing run with a victory at Newmarket last month while Money Team won this in 2015 but arrives badly out of form. Pomme De Terre went close here in June and is preferred to stablemate Aprovado while Art Collection has slipped back down to a winning mark and Quick Look is less exposed than most.
