Verdict

It could pay to stick with the progressive MOSTLY CLOUDY in this. He landed a four-timer with a victory over the extended 2m at Doncaster last time and there looks more to come over today’s trip. Speedo Boy arrived in better form when landing this contest last year and was well beaten at Chester in May along with stablemate Mancini. Baileys Derbyday came up short over 2m once again when placed at Kempton while Single is a rare winner and remains hard to predict.
