        Verdict

        Bateleur does not look overburdened despite a penalty, and can defy topweight at the expense of Gap Princess, No Worries Yet and Leonide. Bateleur turns out quickly under a 6lb penalty, incurred for a gutsy effort at Newmarket on Saturday, when he was asked to burst through a gap and score by Ed Creighton. Mick Channon's charge responded well to the jockey's call, and should make a bold bid to complete a hat-trick, having earlier got the better of Gap Princess at Newcastle. The latter is now 2lb better off at the weights, and will be dangerous again with James Rogers able to claim 7lb, but we feel that Bateleur will be up to the task. No Worries Yet was a close second to the useful Espartano on rain-softened ground at Windsor in May, but has failed to progress. On breeding she will love this extra furlong, and may may make a bold bid for the frame at least. Leonide was not too far behind Abunai at Southwell, and so is another to consider, but Bateleur is fit and in form, so gets the vote.
