Verdict
Placed here and at Chepstow this season, Shanty Alley slips further down the weights. City Never Sleeps won over 2m4f here two runs ago and holds El Scorpio on the form book while chasing debutants Timely Gift and Miss Molinari are worth a second look. DO IT FOR THY SEN (NAP) won over 3m between the flags and produced his best performance to date under Rules when only beaten a neck at Ffos Las last month. He is clearly at home on heavy ground and can go one better here.
