Verdict

YOU'RE HIRED's last victory was by 14 lengths at Newmarket a year ago but he's run some very good races subsequently including on his return to action at Sandown and this looks a good opportunity. River Dawn went up 6lb for winning a Windsor handicap but ran poorly at Chelmsford next time. Siam Fox went up 9lb for scoring at Nottingham, when Dark Company was nine lengths behind, but completed a double at Doncaster before running well for a long way in the Britannia Handicap at Ascot. He looks a big threat while Zoffarelli didn't get the clearest of runs on his return from a long break at Sandown.
