Verdict

Sir Michael Stoute bids for a third successive victory in this and TOP TUG ran better than his finishing position suggests on his reappearance over 1m1f at Newmarket. This longer trip will suit and he gets the vote. Duke Of Clarence found only Arab Spring too good in last year's renewal but is 6lb higher today while Ajman Bridge has been raised a further 3lb after finishing second once again on his comeback at Doncaster last month. Great Hall needs further nowadays while Esteaming ran poorly at Hamilton last month and finished behind Old Town Boy and Emerahldz over track and trip in October when the former won off a 5lb lower mark.
