Verdict
Hototo looks to have solid claims on his second at Ascot as the winner, Cay Verde, went on to Listed success. However, the latter is trained by Mick Channon so he'll have a good idea on where he stands with JILLNEXTDOOR. She also finished runner-up on her debut at Newbury to dual winner Lady Phill and is fancied to go one better with that experience to draw on. Red Style ran well at Beverley last time and looks best of the rest unless Monkey Bar Flies shows a big improvement on his sixth at Doncaster with Baker's Pursuit well behind.
