Verdict

Misaro can follow up at the expense of Campeon, Dance To The Blues, Red Sovereign and Redwood Star. Misaro was given a fine ride by his apprentice pilot to make all at Folkestone five days ago, and with no penalty should prove hard to catch again. Still well handicapped compared to his all-weather form, the Ron Harris-trained five-year-old will love the fast ground as well, so is the one to beat. Campeon has done best with cut in the ground in the past, but handled Kempton's Polytrack surface when narrowly beaten by Cashel Mead just four days ago. A similar effort should ensure that he too is bang in the firing line. Dance To The Blues has topweight and an absence to overcome but will be suited by the trip, while Red Sovereign needs to improve a bit from selling company. Redwood Star's return at Bath should be overlooked as he never recovered after being bumped at the start, so he should go well from stall one, but for the winner we return to Misaro.
