Verdict
Cote d'Azur is very well treated on past form but hard to win with nowadays and wouldn’t want any rain. Pactolus beat Goddess Of Fire here last month and is entitled to confirm that form on worse terms but he may be best in small fields. Toro Dorado is 0-13 on Turf and Mayfair Pompette remains winless and hasn’t raced since October while War Leader has yet to show much since arriving from Ireland. ESTATE HOUSE made a promising reappearance at Wolverhampton and still has scope on this surface so gets the nod, though it would be no surprise to see Dark Scimitar thrive on Turf this year and he wears a hood for the first time on his return to action.
