Verdict
A good run from Lalania in the previous race would be a boost to the chances of Dosc, who was second to that one here in the spring and won at Newcastle earlier this month after a break. He does, however, have a penalty to carry and that means he is giving 7lb to POYLE GEORGE TWO, who looked ready for a step up in trip when third at Southwell. Heavenly Guest hasn’t raced since April and will need to cope with a drop back in distance but the 42,000gns purchase Breathtaking Look is worth a market check given she has a sprinting pedigree. Shyjack is only rated 56 and is fully exposed.
