Verdict

SYMBOL OF HOPE (NAP) looks to have every chance bidding for a hat-trick of course wins. He beat Fair And Square here last time with Savalas further behind and the latter subsequently franked that form when scoring over track and trip with More Than Likely well behind. Yimou went close on the Turf course at Lingfield recently having last won back in 2020.
