Give It Some Teddy ended last season with a double over a mile at Redcar but has switched yards since. This shorter trip may prove his undoing on his reappearance and Zap is preferred after placing in a higher grade at Yarmouth recently. Royal Dynasty will find this tougher than last month’s victory at Chelmsford but further progress looks likely from AL RUFAA (NAP). The Gosden colt romped home by over four lengths at Kempton last time and 6lb extra may not be enough to anchor him in this. Al Namir has undergone wind surgery since last seen and makes more appeal than Dancinginthewoods and Philamundo on his handicap debut.
