Phluke can regain winning ways here at the expense of Wainwright and Gallery Breeze. Fulke Johnson-Houghton's gelding was successful on the all-weather at Lingfield in April and hasn't been disgraced in better company since. His recent second behind Landucci at Brighton looks solid form as the winner went in again a few days ago and he should take all the beating today. Gallery Breeze hasn't been seen out since chasing home Lord Chamberlain at Wolverhampton in March. He was successful this time last year off a mark of 64 so does hold very strong claims today. Wainwright was only beaten a short head by Telepathic at Hamilton last time. The extra distance is slight concern but he should give each-way supporters a run for their money. Master Mahogany looks the pick of the others, but Phluke appears to have the strongest form on show and gets the verdict.
