Prince Of Passion won an apprentices' race over C&D two runs ago before finishing fourth back on the Polytrack last time. He can't be ignored while it would be no surprise to see Hayek run a big race as the handicapper is finally beginning to show him a bit of leniency and he has been thereabouts in recent starts. George Thisby and Mr Udagawa are proven at this level and Flying Applause appears to be running into form but the vote goes to NO LARKING. Simon Walker is one of the most proficient amateurs around and should be able to get the best out of Henry Candy's gelding, who was a comfortable winner at Brighton two runs ago.
