An ordinary seller that can go His Majesty, who is narrowly preferred to Campeon and Yeldham Lady, who have both shown enough to suggest that they can play a part in a race of this nature. The same can be said of Emeraude du Cap, who is slowly getting the hang of things and looks worth another try at this trip. However, like, General Nuisance, she already has improvement to find and others make more appeal. It is fair to assume that Campeon will be one of those that attracts a bit of interest from the ring after a good effort in defeat over course and distance last time. Nevertheless, that effort came in claiming company and he has little more on his plate here. Yeldham Lady went down fighting at Leicester earlier in the month and dropped her most significant hint that there are races to be won with her. However, His Majesty was unlucky to get nailed near the finish here last time, and, with that previous experience under his belt, he is expected to be too tough to overhaul this afternoon.
