Verdict
Wordiness is back on a winning mark but has yet to score on Turf. Royal Sea is 4lb higher than when scoring over track and trip last month but makes more appeal than My Lord, a recent winner over hurdles. Jamaica Grande and Dark Ruler have been running well over 1m2f but this is much tougher than Precision Strike's latest task at Wolverhampton. In contrast, this is less competitive than the race MISTER FIZZ won at Goodwood earlier this month so he gets the vote to go in again.
