Chinese Democracy won by a head last time out at Warwick and PANPIPER comes here after seeing off the attentions of Yurituni at Bath last time out on fast ground whilst Sermons Mount who has finished second in his latest two starts at Chepstow could play a part. Ryan Moore takes the ride on board his father's option in this contest and he looks to have every chance in this race. He runs off a competitive mark and although only winning by a neck last time he can follow up on that success. Chinese Democracy might prefer seven furlongs or a mile a bit more than this hotly contested race and she may just fall short on pace. She runs in a first-time visor and will need to find improvement to contend. Sermons Mount is still a maiden from twenty-one starts and although putting in some improved runs of late his lack of winning form is a deterrent. We prefer to side with Panpiper to pick up the win.
