Verdict

It will be surprising if Champagne Shadow is not good enough to score in this grade, although the likes of Good Article, Mujazef and Cool Isle will not make it easy for the Gary Moore-trained gelding. Cool Isle has made the frame on several occasions on the All Weather and is effective in this grade. She wasn't given a hard time when her chance had gone behind a 'good thing' of Sir Mark Prescott's last time and holds place claims once more. Mujazef has a similar profile and will appreciate this step up in trip. However, his turf form leaves a little to be desired and he is not one to go overboard with in the absence of a positive move in the betting ring. Good Article has bits and pieces of form that suggests he can go close. However, the trip is a concern and again, in the absence of a reliable betting guide, a late play is advised before taking any each-way odds available. Because this very much revolves around how well Champagne Shadow performs today. The son of Kahyasi has stacks in hand on BHB official rating and, even though he is in danger of becoming disappointing, it would be most surprising if he were to be overturned in this company.
