Another valuable prize on offer here and a very competitive field. Galeota could be the one to collect, Peace Offering and Conquest are the most likely dangers. Richard Hannon's charge has returned from a long break with some excellent efforts this season including a victory in a Nottingham conditions event. the seven furlongs proved too far last time out and back over a sprint trip he should go close. Peace Offering has to give weight away all round but does have a touch of class. He wasn't beaten far behind the top class Hellvelyn at Beverley last time and shouldn't be far away here. Conquest has had a bit of a quiet campaign so far but did look on the way back to form last time out and a big run wouldn't come as a surprise. Drayton was a top juvenile in Ireland and is another that could go well. However, in a wide open contest Galeota just gets the verdict.
