In depth

Verdict

With guaranteed fitness on his side, this looks an excellent opportunity for last week’s Newmarket runner-up INVOLVED (NAP). George Boughey, who has an outstanding strike-rate, had a winner at Chelmsford earlier this week and his five-year-old is due to go up 2lb next week. Champs De Reves won on Turf and Polytrack last year and should give a good account if fully wound-up but Tell William produced his best performances on fast going last season. Water's Edge could play a part with Cieren Fallon’s claim a plus.
