Verdict

Boardman finished last when Ramazan justified favouritism at Haydock last month. Gweedore, who finished sixth that day, later dead-heated with Atrium at Doncaster but Charlie Fellowes’ charge has his favoured ground again. Ahead of Zip at York last month, Able Kane was then second at Yarmouth and Fools Rush In looked to be coming to hand when fifth in a valuable handicap at Ascot 12 days ago. Quest For Fun beat a big field at York last month and Pearle D'or has been in good form at York recently but the three-year-old SAXON KING gets soft going for the first time since making all at Newmarket in May and he’s had excuses the last twice.
