Verdict
FATHER FRED bids for hat-trick after scoring over course and distance earlier this month. He carries a penalty but won't have to improve to go in again given he beat most of today's field easily enough last time. Charlemagne Diva finished nearest to the selection but was still five lengths behind and Fantasy Invader has plenty to find on collateral form. Prigsnov Dancer brings a different line of form after finishing second at Catterick and could prove the main threat.
