Verdict

The three-year-old Enlace won over 7f at Goodwood before a fair run at Chelmsford and isn't out of this. Jacob Black made all over course and distance last month and is only 3lb here. Keith Dalgleish's may find it harder to dominate this field but can confirm that form with third Tigers Tale, fourth Master The World and the unplaced Elemraan. Knight Owl looked to be on the way back at Newmarket and should make a bold bid but BASEM is taken to make a winning reappearance. The Pivotal colt possibly found 1m2f too far here in October but had looked a progressive miler over track and trip earlier when Man Of Harlech was third. Godolphin's other runner, Pallister, has a bit to prove after an ordinary comeback over further.
