Jack Channon is having a tremendous first season with a license and MAJESTIC looks to gain an overdue success having performed with credit in valuable handicaps this season. Lord Protector goes well around here and it would be no surprise to see him taking a hand now 1lb better off for a neck defeat by Paradias over track and trip. Aramaic was sent off as favourite on that occasion and could realise improvement given that was only his second run for the best part of two years. Moktasaab has started to creep back down the weights while Honiton didn’t appear to handle Epsom so that run is probably best forgotten.
