Verdict

A four-year-old has won five of the six renewals of this contest and OLD HUNDRED can continue the trend. He landed a double with a victory at Doncaster on his return and James Fanshawe's charge has an earlier victory over today's rival Saggiatore to his credit. Seaside Sizzler is another chasing his hat trick after a couple of wins at Kempton but a 9lb rise makes his task a tough one, while Trovare won twice here last summer and went close again over C&D a fortnight ago. Denton and Hayzoom look high enough in the weights now however.
