Bosh makes most appeal of the three Hannon runners dropping back in trip. Aasser is also interesting reverting to 6f on this stiff track having gone close twice over 7f recently. William Buick takes the reins and Karl Burke will also be confident of a big run from the consistent Lethal Levi. Deodar’s form over this trip stands up to scrutiny but KHANJAR’s defeat of previous winner Azure Blue at Ripon was all the more impressive considering he blew the start and was having a first outing since September. Twelfth Knight has improved since beaten by Lil Guff at Yarmouth in May and the step up in trip will probably suit Le Beau Garcon but Ingra Tor was a disappointing favourite in a similar contest at York and will have to reverse that form with several of these. Witch Hunter also needs forgiving a below-par effort at Windsor, though that was hist first run since March.
