Verdict

Blue Monkey looks to be an improver and can continue that upward curve to take this from Padlocked, Bajan Pride and Leptis Magna. The selection has won three of his last six starts on different going, so he should be able to handle this. His latest win came at Sandown when he had a fair bit in hand and over a trip that looks ideal he can win again. Padlocked drops back to a mile after failing to handle the track and the watered ground at Goodwood last time. His first couple of wins were decent form and if back on song he can go very close. Bajan Pride and Leptis Magna come from yards who have each won this in the past two seasons. The former, a Richard Hannon inmate, is on a hat-trick and looks a serious danger after an eased down success last time, though a 7lb penalty won't help. Leptis Magna is another with possibilities but needs to show more on fast ground before carrying our cash and that role here goes to Blue Monkey.
