REGIMENTED has tumbled down the weights in the last year or so and finally showed the benefit when beaten a nose at Newbury last time. Richard Hannon’s colt is taken to come out best ahead of Hackbridge, who lost by the same narrow winning-margin at Windsor last month but is now 8lb higher than when scoring on the Polytrack here last year. Double Reflection went close at Brighton in between poor efforts while Enzemble was expected to finish closer at Beverley recently and Kadrizzi hasn’t won since 2016.
Double Reflection 14-1 (10-7) Led 2f, tracked leader until 6f out, ridden and weakened quickly 4f out, tailed off, 8th of 9, dist behind She Believes (9-13) at Ascot 1m 2f hcp fll (4) gs in May.
Regimented (IRE) 12-1 (9-8) Always prominent, led inside final 2f, strongly pressed when edged left inside final furlong, ran on gamely, headed post, 2nd of 17, shd behind Wind In My Sails (9-7) at Newbury 1m hcp (5) gd in May.
Enzemble (IRE) 7-2 (9-0) Tracked leader, hard ridden to challenge over 1f out, weakened closing stages, 3rd of 9, 5 1/4l behind Crownthorpe (9-6) at Beverley 1m hcp (4) gd in May.
Kadrizzi (FR) 8-1 (9-3) Chased leaders, smooth progress over 3f out, led well over 1f out, headed inside final furlong, no extra, 3rd of 9, 3l behind Regular Income (9-7) at Nottingham 1m 2f hcp (5) sft in May.
Hackbridge 10-1 (9-5) Raced keenly, held up in mid-division, headway on outside chasing leaders, over 2f out, strong run and closed well inside final furlong, just failed, 2nd of 10, shd behind Mr Tyrrell (9-9) at Windsor 1m hcp (5) gd in Apr.
The Night King 12-1 (8-7) Held up, pushed along over 3f out, effort on outside over 1f out, never dangerous, 5th of 7, 8 3/4l behind Hameem (9-7) at Newmarket 1m 4f hcp (4) gf in May.
