Verdict
Cyclop won a claimer at Auteuil last month but how he'll cope with a penalty and this much faster ground on his first start for David Dennis is anybody's guess and, despite his experience, others have more scope. The remainder have all run on the Flat with varying results but Arthur's Melody and Fast Green haven't raced since the turn of the year. GIMME FIVE won over 1m4f at Bath in April and has been placed at Chepstow since. He can outstay Intermath and the filly Jazzy Lady.
