Verdict

In an interesting affair, Millinsky gets the call with Flaran, Enjoy The Buzz, Simpsons Mount and Byo possibly rating as her biggest dangers. Millinsky is improving at a rate of knots and, following a comfortable course and distance maiden win, followed up stylishly in a Newbury apprentice handicap. She is, effectively, ten pounds better off based on future ratings and, coming here in very good heart, looks set for a big run. An obvious danger is Flaran, who came good at Lingfield last time and, from just a four-pound higher mark, is very much respected, while Enjoy The Buzz, who is four pounds better off for a length-and-a-quarter based on that run based on that run just referred to, must also come into the reckoning. Simpsons Mount is now back to a winning mark so can be given a chance, and he has won over course and distance, while Stargem has been knocking at the door of late and, with her form rating as ok, she might go well. Byo is well-weighted on Turf based on his Haydock success last May, but Ever Cheerful has never won at this trip. Finally, Pretty Kool tries this trip for the first time today and it could suit this course winner. Overall, though, we are happy enough to side with Millinsky.
