Verdict

NUCLEAR POWER is the most exposed in this but was only beaten half-a-length at Chelmsford earlier this month having contested the Norfolk Stakes at Ascot previously. He's preferred to Yarmouth scorer Ernststavroblofeld, who has to concede 7lb, and Imperial City, who hinted at ability at Kempton and Leicester last month. Polly's Angels and Swell Hill have only had one run apiece so are probably open to some improvement.
