A wide open handicap rounds off the card and the main protagonists look to be Joseph Henry, Express Wish and Tamagin and the vote is given to Express Wish. The selection was well beaten last time out behind Shmook but prior to tsaht he had looked progressive and with the return to the faster surface looking sure to suit and with Frankie Dettori looking a positive jockey booking he is taken to regain the winning thread. Joseph Henry rates the main danger on his latest second behind Pearly Way. He runs off the same mark here and from a good draw he will not be far away. Tamagin is another worthy of respect as he beat Obe Gold in good style last time out. However this looks much more competitive and he will need to improve again to win off this higher mark. Lady Lilly won well last time when beating Charlie Tipple but that horse has since been well beaten and she looks opposable off this higher mark on that basis. Trojan Flight is game and consistent and is sure to run his race but this hold up performer will need plenty of luck in running if he is to score. Of the remainder Ingleby Arch has dropped to a handy mark and could go well at a price under his optimum conditions but for the winner we are happy to return to Express Wish.
