An intriguing contest despite the small field. Daneking has solid claims on his recent placed efforts in handicaps at around today's trip and Moment In Time appreciated the step up to 1m2f when scoring at Brighton in June. Yanabeeaa was a big disappointment last time but it's too soon to write him off on the evidence of one bad run though the vote goes to THE BARONET. He has the typical profile of a Sir Mark Prescott inmate having won his maiden at Nottingham over a mile but with improvement expected over middle-distances and he could turn out the one to beat in this.
