Verdict

Levi Draper has won all three starts this year and is on a five-timer overall. But he only won by a neck at Yarmouth last month and has been bumped up a further 6lb since. Bravo Echo's Deauville win came on an artificial surface but he'd been running well on Turf previously and should be thereabouts again along with the luckless Kakatosi and Albaqaa, who was third at Goodwood on Tuesday and holds Bassara on earlier form but did finish behind My Kingdom over 6f here in June. ANGELIC UPSTART has slipped to a decent mark judged on his comeback third at Chepstow and could be worth chancing in this off bottom weight as he's sure to strip fitter today.
