Verdict

While predicting the outcome of the draw is a thankless task history does show a double-figure stall to be most advantageous and we'll use that notion to help us narrow down the contenders; PALACE MOON gets the vote to win ahead of last year's victor Genki, Enact and Jonny Mudball. William Knight's five-year-old is relatively lightly-raced for one of his age having had just 12 starts, winning three, and after needing his first run at Salisbury the gelding has put together a couple of fine runs in handicaps. His third to gambled-on Laddies Poker Two is even better than it reads as he was given plenty to do while last time at Newmarket his stamina just gave out over seven. He's officially 5lbs ahead of the handicapper following that run and is taken to show that by winning under Fallon. Genki is tried in a visor as he bids to complete the double in this race off a 7lb higher mark than last term. He's got work to do with Palace Moon on their Wokingham form but proven form at the track counts for plenty and he should go well, arriving as he does in form. Enact is a lightly-raced progressive sort from a top yard, albeit one having their troubles, and she's still nicely handicapped just 3lbs higher than when second to an improving sort on her seasonal return. Both the filly's wins have come under these conditions and she can be expected to have improved for that comeback run. Jonny Mudball is possibly flattered by his Newcastle success when benifitting from a strong draw bias, but that could be the case again and he's got speed in abundance. He is 9lbs higher but has been something of a flag-bearer for the struggling Tom Dascombe outfit this term and should give supporters a run for their money. It'd be foolish to discount those with lower draws, especially as plenty of the action this week has taken place up the centre of the track. With that in mind Knot In Wood has to be considered with connections claiming 3lbs thanks to Barry McHugh. He's placed in the last three editions of this race, ran well in the Wokingham when one place behind our selection, and is just a pound higher than when third in this race last term. Drawn next to him is Secret Asset, whose form this year stacks up right the way through, while well-regarded Jimmy Styles is only 4lbs higher than when winning the Ayr Gold Cup and is tried in blinkers. Castles In The Air looks the pick of the Fahey attack although stall two may not be perfect, Noverre To Go is another who finished among the principles in the Wokingham and may have a good draw while Hitchens and Ingleby Lady could also go well, but this wide-open Stewards' Cup can go to Palace Moon.
