Verdict

Celtic Sultan went close when third over C&D last time and there is little to separate him and fourth-placed Orbit The Moon. It's anybody's guess which one of that pair will come out best on this occasion though Blues Jazz and Polar Annie finished further behind and will do well to get involved. It was only a claimer Frequency won at Hamilton earlier this month while FIELDGUNNER KIRKUP takes a step up in class having scored at Newcastle last time. He did finish over three lengths clear of the field, however, and it would be no surprise if he gets the better of recent Newmarket fourth Abe Master and follows up here.
