Verdict
Haajes won this cavalry charge last year with Strike Up The Band behind and though he has plenty in his favour today, he won't want the ground to get any faster. He won at Doncaster last month, however, and is closely matched with the re-opposing Eland Ally, Lujeanie and Indian Trial, who filled the places on that occasion and can be given a chance here. The speedy Taurus Twins and Bronze Beau are others to consider, but a chance is taken on LIVING IT LARGE. Twice a winner already this season, all ground comes alike to Ed de Giles' sprinter and he's dropping in class and is only 1lb higher than his win at Epsom in July.
