Verdict

Ancient Capital and Mujid were first and third over course and distance last month with the latter finishing runner-up at Windsor subsequently. He's also better off at the weights here but the winner can still confirm the form. Master Grey remains a consistent sort but hasn't won in 34 starts. Shut Up And Dance has enjoyed a good season with three successes but struggled off a higher mark last time. FAST FORWARD still looks on the improve on the Flat so gets the vote even though the gelding pulled up when last seen in a juvenile hurdle at Uttoxeter.
