Verdict

Paul Midgley runs three in this and Good Luck Fox has a chance but most attention will be focused on Militia, who has won two of his last three and has only gone up a pound for his latest success at Musselburgh. Sir Titus is still 5lb higher than when completing a double at Haydock a year ago but goes on the ground and is eased in grade. SHOWALONG (NAP) is on his lowest-ever mark and finished ahead of the latter at York in May. He gets a tentative vote though it would be no surprise to see the three-year-old Fast Response run a big race.
