Grey Boy is at the top of his game and can land the hat-trick here, Goodwood Spirit and Vicious Warrior could prove to be the main rivals. Amanda Perrett's four-year-old has hit form with a vengeance and defied a penalty to comfortably beat Auvergne at Nottingham last time. He won a almost two lengths, but it could have been more and he may still be one step ahead of the handicapper. Vicious Warrior came up against a really progressive colt last time, who has gone in again since. He was clear second best to that rival and had some seasoned handicappers behind. He should go well here at a decent price. Goodwood Spirit disappointed at Salisbury last time but has to be given a chance on his previous Newbury victory. Royal Dignitary could be the pick of the Dandy Nicholls runners, and Pango can also go well off top-weight, however you can't ignore Grey Boy in this mood and he gets the verdict.
