Verdict

HOMME PUBLIC (NAP) placed in a tougher contest than this at Sandown when bidding for a hat-trick. A similar effort should see him go close in this lesser company. Nayati ran below par behind the selection but won at Bangor earlier while Voix Du Reve has a shout on a second at Aintree two runs ago. Al Zaraqaan beat Socialist Agenda when winning a lower grade contest over track and trip but is 9lb higher and both Parisencore and First Impression are preferred off their current marks.
