In depth

Verdict

Sommersturm remains as inconsistent as ever and left a poor effort behind when popping up at Wolverhampton last time. An 8lb rise will likely prevent him following up and a penalty could scupper the chances of Llamadas, who beat Hi Note at Kempton during the week. GUARDS CHAPEL also scored at Kempton last month and went close again on his latest start. He gets another chance off his current mark with Ryan Moore taking over the reins. Russian George is hard to win with but wasn't beaten far at Wolverhampton last time and could also figure.
