Verdict

Royal Amnesty gets the call here ahead of Faith And Reason and Los Cabos. Los Cabos showed tough qualities when scoring at Bath on his final juvenile start and he gets plenty of respect today. Although Faith And Reason only won them narrowly, he still won his last two races as a juvenile and rates as an interesting three-year-old. Illustrious Blue has recent form, including at this venue, and is three pounds better off for the three-quarters-of-a-length that Royal Amnesty beat him over course and distance last time. We will stick with the latter today, who really seems to like it here. Acrobatic was beaten a short head by Los Cabos in a juvenile maiden and he has performed respectably this season without setting the world alight, while Celtic Spirit has not been hit hard by the handicapper following his heavy-ground Chepstow win, based on which he is a little hard to assess. Overall, then, we will stick with Royal Amnesty.
