Verdict

Highland Colori arrives here in cracking form having already won four times this year between 6f and 1m. He's creeping up the weights but there's no reason why he shouldn't be thereabouts again here. Dubai Dynamo rarely runs a bad race but is better over further and possibly on an easier surface while Corporal Maddox ran poorly at Thirsk after winning at Ascot. Go Dutch has to be interesting off bottom weight having beaten the consistent My Kingdom at Epsom but it looks like the handicapper has got to King Of Eden and Mont Ras, third in the Spring Mile here earlier in the season, gets little respite from the handicapper. SIR REGINALD was a useful juvenile and has looked on the way back in his last two starts, finishing fourth in the Bunbury Cup and sixth in the Betfred Mile. This is less competitive and Richard Fahey's gelding could be the one to beat today.
