Verdict
The Blue Banana would prefer faster ground and so would recent Pontefract runner-up Pertuis. Rise To Glory won over 6f at Ayr last week but is hard to fancy over this much longer trip and the likes of Conducting and Woodacre make more appeal. Santo Prince has a shout but Catherine Walton is in contention for the Amateur Ladies Championship and she can follow up on VALENTINE'S GIFT having steered the latter to victory at Nottingham last time.
