    Verdict

    CASA COMIGO (NAP) won this by a wide-margin last year and a recent second over 1m6f at Chelmsford suggests another bold bid is likely with Oisin Murphy’s presence another positive. Red Secret went close at Kempton when last racing over 2m while Estrela Star scored over track and trip early in the year though is 6lb higher. Amanto hasn’t raced since February while bumper winner Beholden went close in a maiden on the Flat recently and is preferred to Amjaady.
