Verdict

Angel De Luz tries this longer trip for the first time but has improved this year and could go close if first-time blinkers have the desired effect. However, GREEK GIANT won one of these by five lengths at Lingfield and will be difficult to beat, despite a penalty, if transferring that form back to Turf. Optik was second in a handicap at Tapeta last month so can’t be ignored.
