Rated 82, WILD TOBACCO is clear at the weights and drops in class after a below-par effort in soft ground at Newbury. He should be winning this if running anywhere near the level of his earlier runs. Sir Keltic Blue, Rockcandy Mountain and Legal Art have plenty to find with the selection on today's terms but have a weight advantage with the rest and the latter makes most appeal of that trio on her earlier placed efforts on the all-weather. Mon Gris could also go well if at his best but it's hard to make a decent case for any of the remainder.
