Maazel was narrowly beaten over 7f here at the start of the month with Rivas Rob Roy and Swiss Cross behind. But none of the above have won over this far before and SHARP OPERATOR (NAP) is preferred. The latter ran below par on the all-weather last time but finished in front of Khazix and Confrerie when runner-up over course and distance before that and Charlie Wallis’ charge can go one better with an apprentice’s allowance in his favour. Hidden Stash is back on a winning mark and not out of this with last month’s reappearance under his belt.
