Bold Prediction has won twice on Polytrack this year and was a close-up fourth in the Lincoln Trial at Wolverhampton when last seen. Gabrial's Kaka won at Chelmsford last month but was then well beaten when joint favourite at Haydock and finished behind SOUND ADVICE. A winner twice over course and distance last year, Keith Dalgleish's charge is handicapped to get involved again and is just preferred to the lightly-raced Archie, who made a very promising reappearance when fourth at Kempton. Arnold Lane has won here off a higher mark in the past while Perfect Pasture was noted staying on at Goodwood last Saturday, though has an extra half-furlong to cover here.
