Verdict

LOYALTY has returned from a three month lay-off in terrific form winning his last two starts at Kempton. He may have gone up 9lb for his convincing defeat of previous winner Tarooq last time, but it's still difficult to get away from Derek Shaw's progressive gelding. Mia's Boy beat a higher rated rival in a conditions race at Doncaster three weeks ago with Zacynthus further behind and should figure once again, while Blue Moon is another to consider back in handicap company as he's won three times over C&D. Sinfonico, Riggins and Hazzard County all have the past form to figure in such a competitive contest if back to their best.
