      Verdict

      Having raced wide off the bend at Epsom last time, SEXTANT (NAP) found himself with too much ground to make up in the straight. He’d won nicely at Ascot before that and Sir Michael Stoute’s charge gets another chance in this. Big Kitten has been knocking at the door on the all-weather though is 10lb higher than last year’s success at Newcastle but Speed Company found only one too good humping a big weight at York last time. Oasis Fantasy only won a lower grade contest at Lingfield last month and Banditry is preferred on a placed effort over 1m2f here while Fire Fighting has plenty to find with the selection on Epsom form.
