Verdict
Sandusky ran well on his reappearance at Newmarket but the drop in distance and quicker ground may not be in his favour. Ripon second Troopingthecolour could make his presence felt again while Tres Coronas was third in the City And Surburban at Epsom, though is another better on a softer surface. Media Hype has been in decent form already this season and Staff Sergeant won at Musselburgh two weeks ago while Ripon second Silvery Moon is worth another try over 1m2f this year. Camborne was well beaten on his Turf debut at Newcastle, however, and has a bit to prove now and we prefer SHAMDARLEY. Successful over C&D in October, he was a real eye-catcher in the Spring Mile at Doncaster on his reappearance and will go close with a clear run today. Pendragon often runs well in this type of race and could be the pick of the remainder.
