Verdict
Pinarius can boast a couple of winning relatives and any support for him in the betting should be noted but, apart from the latter, CRUCK REALTA has little to worry about in this company. She scored at this track before going close in the Chesham Stakes at Royal Ascot last week. The normally consistent Ishi Honest appeared unable to cope with the heavy going at Chepstow last time but still makes more appeal than the remaining duo The Black Jacobin and Ask the Guru. The latter pair finished second and fourth respectively at Beverley last month and step up in trip today.
