Verdict

KENSTONE’s victory over a mile here six weeks ago came on quicker ground but he’s handled these conditions well enough in the past and the booking of Hollie Doyle is a positive. Fact Or Fable was only fourth behind Sympathise here in May but has won twice since over course and distance. The latter is having a cracking campaign and arrives on a hat-trick so can’t be left out of calculations but Galileo Glass looks held on the form book. Bantry is probably best of the rest.
