Just a small field but with Quantum Dot and Monumental Man in the field this should be run at a good pace which will suit the two Peter Crate runners. Both have their chances and if SANDFRANKSKIPSGO does come here after running at Windsor he may well be able to hold off his stablemate Taajub who might do better back in this grade after being a little highly tried of late.
