Verdict

Another chance for John Gosden to pick up another prize this afternoon with the improving Double Doors, Nobelix and Cold Turkey may be the best alternatives. Double Doors was very green early in his career but still put in some good efforts. He has now certainly got the hang of things having landed a maiden and a handicap in good style. There could be plenty more to come and he can land the hat-trick. Cold Turkey returns from a bit of a break but is a good performer on his day and should go well despite top-weight. Nobelix returned to winning ways last time out and the rise in the weights is slightly offset by Jamie Millman's claim. Of the others Chocolate Caramel is consistent and could again be in the places, Double Doors is hard to ignore in this mood and he gets the decision.
