Verdict

Mark Johnston sent out last year’s winner and has booked Frankie Dettori for Iffraaz, dropped into a handicap after running in the Gimcrack at York. He was a place behind stablemate Misty Grey so that one’s run in the opener could be a pointer. Ethic never figured in the Acomb at York but also has sights lowered and should go well. Modern British Art has improved with each run but tries 7f for the first time. HARIBOUX has gone up 10lb for winning at Newmarket but is probably verging on Listed class now and may be good enough to defy top weight ahead of York winner Owney Madden and Bravo Faisal, who is the pick of Richard Fahey’s pair on jockey bookings
