Verdict
George Baker could only manage third under an apprentice at Bath last time but is still fancied to confirm earlier running over track and trip with Exceeding Power. Celestial Knight finished a bit closer over a mile here recently and can figure while Spinning Cobblers and Diamonds A Dancing are not without a chance as they return to action. Hierarch and Royal Caper are course and distance winners but too unreliable to have much faith in so a purely speculative vote goes to the unexposed five-year-old PROMINNA. He steps back up in trip on his first start since February and could go well at a price.
