Verdict
YUKON DELTA, only beaten a nose at Fontwell, looks the one to beat here if the visor works a second time. Ange Des Malberaux will appreciate this longer trip while Unify made late headway last time at Worcester. Kyllachykov and Princess Tiana have each-way claims but Late Shipment continues to disappoint and there wasn't much encouragement in Le Legro's run here in April.
