A huge field, half the field holding solid chances, and the imponderable of the draw; this year's renewal of the Britannia can go the way of JASER, with Slugger O'Toole, Fervent Prince and Hurricane Hymnbook all making it to the shortlist. A pin or being friends with Mystic Meg would come in useful here but, from the evidence seen on Tuesday a low draw appears to be the place to be on the straight course. Jaser is drawn in 11 so his jockey can use his grey matter and this progressive son of Alhaarth should run well. He suffered a recent reversal in a valuable contest at Haydock when beaten into third behind Staying On. That form looks solid and with no ground worries, a big run should be forthcoming despite a further 3lb rise in the weights. Flawed Genius was back in fourth that day and has a pull in the weights, whilst Masaalek and Redford are unexposed youngsters who are certainly on the up. Fathsta is as game as they come and will appreciate this longer trip; whilst Thebes is untested on turf but his all-weather profile suggest a horse going places; if he gets the trip he can go well. Stall one could be good for Hurricane Hymnbook, but probably only if he holds a prominent pitch throughout, whilst Virtual and Commander Cave are both progressive and it would be no surprise to see either getting back to winning ways. Fervent Prince comes here on a recent success and his form looks rock solid, as does that of Slugger O'Toole and he shapes as if this step up to a mile will be ideal. Perks and recent maiden winner Rattan are just two more to throw into the mix, and along with Godolphin representative Fateh Field must be respected, however the most tentative of votes goes to Jaser.
