Verdict

Living Leader bolted up over course and distance in July and is only 6lb higher. He clearly goes well for an inexperienced rider and will be hard to keep out of the frame. Lady Bayside isn't without a chance on her best form while Go For Broke has been knocking on the door lately and gained his only win so far on this track. George Baker is another for the short-list and Rapunzal can be excused her run at Brighton. LADY SYLVIA won this 12 months ago off the same mark and had Living Leader behind when second at Sandown two runs ago. She can stage an encore under the talented Ali Rawlinson.
