Verdict
DUBAI CREST makes most appeal here, and is selected ahead of Caster Sugar and Excelsior Academy. Amanda Perrett's colt's sole success so far has come on the all-weather at Kempton, and he was narrowly beaten last time out at Nottingham when not really getting on with the job. He seems a progressive type though, and the drop back to a mile is probably a positive. He does though have to defy being joint top weight. Caster Sugar has a couple of decent seconds to her name and looks to have a win within her. She's likely to be held up early on if the past is anything to go by before making a dash for home. Excelsior Academy has been knocking on the door too, but has shown signs of quirkiness. He's highly thought of though, with a Derby entry pencilled in for next year.
