Verdict
Twosheetstothewind is our preference with Cape Royal and Bluebok put up as the main dangers. Conor Dore's charge is not the most consistent of creatures but there was a lot to like about that second to Black Moma. Capable of acting on any ground, she has a fair draw to work from this evening. Cape Royal proved to be no back number when rattling home at Nottingham at the end of last month. Bluebok is the mount of Jamie Spencer. A crack sprinter a couple of seasons ago, he has dropped down the weights. Course winner, Make My Dream is sure to have his followers. Woodcote needs to reverse form with him on their last meeting. Equuleus Pictor didn't do a lot wrong behind Nusoor last time out whilst Ryan Moore is an interesting booking on old-timer Pic Up Sticks. Plenty of chances held and we are with Twosheetstothewind.
