Verdict

Data Protection made all in the Silver Cambridgeshire at Newmarket and never looked like being caught. He’s been a real money-spinner this year but has gone up another 7lb and is much better on quick ground. Mr Top Hat is only a pound higher than when winning on soft going at Chester in the spring and could stage a revival in first-time blinkers. Autumn War was an eye-catcher over further here two weeks ago and is also tried in blinkers but Rajinsky will probably need this. BLISTERING BOB is still relatively unexposed on Turf. He was knocked out of his stride at Salisbury last month having won well earlier at the same track and still has time on his side. Regular Income may be best of the rest.
