Verdict

Be Perfect won this in 2015 but could only finish fifth last year with Ingleby Hollow bringing up the rear. Pumblechook has struggled since landing a double with a win at Newmarket in June and has something to prove now but TENZING NORGAY is having only his third start of the year after placing at Sandown and he may prove good enough in this less competitive affair. Itlaaq finished behind Be Perfect here in April but has slipped back down to a winning mark subsequently.
