Verdict
Recent York winner Andaleep boasts an excellent strike-rate and should run his race again over his best trip. Baryshnikov has become hard to place but has each-way claims again and Old Port will be staying on if the pace is strong enough. Eagle's Way was unbeaten in four starts last year and fitness is unlikely to be an issue but Cumulonimbus has shown himself to be suited by 1m4f this year. LIKE A TIGER beat Regal Empire by four lengths at Newmarket in April, despite rearing as the stalls opened. The latter is 8lb better off today but James Ferguson’s colt can confirm the form with the going in his favour again.
