      Verdict

      Having been placed at Auteuil, the four-year-old Be On Time makes his debut for Jamie Snowden and is unlikely to be far away. The Bay Bandit has been kept going over the summer and won at Sedgefield in August. But he's high enough in the weights now and Midnight Chorister could also struggle off his current mark. Helium usually finds a couple too good at this level so we'll take a chance that TAKE THE CROWN is fully wound-up for his reappearance. He did win over 2m4f at Southwell in March but this looks his best trip.
