Unsuited lines up in top form and is taken to complete a four-timer at the expense of Gold Ring, Ken's Dream and Silver City. The latter was only just denied on his reappearance at Epsom and now that his stable is back among the winners, can take a hand in proceedings. However, it is hard to escape the claims of Unsuited who has been on a roll of late, with three consecutive victories at Kempton, ridden on each occasion by Natalia Gemelova. The mare's confidence seems to have improved in leaps and bounds, and although she is rising in the weights, there should be at least one more success to come. She would not want it too fast, so any rain that falls will be a bonus for John Long's five-year-old. Gold Ring continues to knock on the door, and there was not a great deal wrong with his third at York last time. The joint topweight is sure to be there again along with Ken's Dream who produced a smart turn of foot when scoring at Newmarket. In receipt of weight from all of those rivals though, Unsuited is the pick.
