In depth

Verdict

Fendale and Ifwecan are joint top-rated and the latter was only beaten a length over this trip at Newmarket last month. GEORGE CINQ is only rated a pound lower and the six-year-old deserves a change of luck having just lost out over 6f here last time. He'd chased home subsequent York winner Felix Leiter at Lingfield previously and is in good form. Moon River has never won on Turf but was only beaten a neck over course and distance last month and is probably a better bet than quirky Goodwood winner Pastoral Player. Bint Dandy is on a long losing run but has been quite highly tried recently.
