Verdict

Sir Michael Stoute's name crops up three times on the list of recent winning trainers and INDELIBLE INK (NAP) may prove good enough. The latter has been competing in better company than this and was not beaten far when fifth over track and trip in May by Dartmouth who has since won again. By contrast, Classic Villager is upped in class and raised 9lb after scoring on the all-weather last time and Windsor winner Special Miss failed to cope at Newmarket having been raised the same amount. Squire ran well for third here last month and is preferred to Zambeasy and Pack Leader.
