Verdict
Another competitive field goes to post for this claimer and the protagonists appear to be Fission, Lavish Times and Embassy Lord and we will take a chance on Fission. Sir Mark Prescott's charge has been running in much better grade of late and a reproduction of his latest fifth behind Tentative would make him hard to beat and with conditions in his favour he gets a confident vote. Lavish Times rates the main danger he won a seller a couple of runs ago but he never runs two races alike and for that reason he is opposed. Embassy Lord is another worthy of consideration he was a fair second in a seller behind Queen Of Bulgaria last time out and with Fallon taking the ride he has definite place claims. Armentieres showed improved form last time out when third behind Maggies Choice and if he were to improve again he would have definite place claims but we are happy to side with Fission.
