Verdict
Sky Rose went close over 1m5f last time but was well beaten at Goodwood over today's trip earlier. YORKSHIREMAN ran below par here on his latest start but is a dual winner over track and trip and may well be up to landing this on his return from an absence. Illya Kuryakin won at Southwell in August, though remains 7lb higher, but Ballyfarsoon won off a 3lb lower mark over track and trip back in January and could go well.
