      Verdict

      Royal Dynasty was impressive in landing a first career success over course and distance and he's the one open to greatest progression after just seven starts. He goes up a level in class here but it will be no surprise to see him go really well. All five of his rivals have won over this trip and MOUNT WELLINGTON is preferred of the quintet in the hope that he can transfer his recent run of good form at Wolverhampton to this venue. He's two from four at the midlands track over the winter and looked somewhat unlucky last time round. Hopefully, Rob Hornby can deliver him late and fast. Rock Boy Grey and Aguerooo are seen as next best in a tricky heat.
