Verdict

All of these can be given a shout including last year’s winner and recent Windsor runner-up Croeso Cymraeg. Dual Identity and Carrigillihy have both been raised 3lb for winning their latest starts with the former scoring in this grade while Dembe is looking to translate his progressive form on the all-weather over to this surface as he debuts on Turf. TUSCON CLOUD will be sharper for a comeback third at Beverley and given the first two home have both subsequently won, he gets the vote as Ryan Moore’s only ride of the meeting.
