Verdict

A handful of these have already been allocated an official rating and are closely matched according to the handicapper. Princess Rose and Shepherd Gate are the most exposed and the likes of Kenny The Captain and El Beau, both second on their latest starts, may improve past them. Hamilton runner-up, Gown, hasn't been helped by a high draw and LINCOLN makes more appeal. Disappointing over the minimum trip last time having gone close over 6f at Ascot before that, today's step up in trip could prove the answer for Mick Channon's colt.
