Verdict

None of these can be dismissed out of hand though Blonde Warrior is penalised 6lb for earlier wins and Aquanura steps up in trip on the back of a debut third at Newmarket. Fox Coach was a visually impressive winner over track and trip last time but faces tougher opposition today including Motafaawit, who made a winning start at Leicester before going close at Newbury and is entered in the Champagne Stakes. RED BRAVO (NAP) has an entry in the Dewhurst having beaten a subsequent winner at Newmarket when making a successful debut over today’s trip and Charlie Hills’ charge gets the vote on that form.
