Verdict
Volpone Jelois went close over 1m4f here a week ago and stays this far while Lost The Moon was runner-up over 2m at Wolverhampton recently but had earlier finished behind fifth-placed Ayr Of Elegance at Newmarket. The latter won over track and trip during the summer and is only 2lb higher but it could pay to stick with NOBLE BEHEST until beaten. He landed a hat-trick of 2m victories with September’s success at Wolverhampton and the three-year-old may not have stopped improving yet.
