Verdict
Buzz Lightyere is best at this track and was beaten only a head here last time. But he finished behind third-placed SPIRIT OF SARWAN over track and trip before that and the latter may prove good enough today. King of Dreams has a shout on a recent second at Chelmsford and Balgair was narrowly beaten over 7f here on his penultimate start. Fortune And Glory won over 7f at Kempton earlier and is preferred to Bloodsweatandtears.
