Romil Star gets the confident nomination with Coolfore Jade and The Last Mohican put forward as the main dangers. The 7-year-old goes well on this track and hails from the in-form Karl Burke yard. He was a game winner at Wolverhampton last time when defeating Desert Quill and he looks sure to go well with a decent amateur on board. Coolfore Jade was well beaten in a better race than this at Brighton last time. He does go well on this track but has been below his best for a while now so for that reason he is opposed. The Last Mohican was a big disappointment at Lingfield last time behind Buying A Dream, but he would have claims on his previous win in a Banded Stakes race on this track. Of the remainder, King Priam is not been in the best of form but could be capable of claiming a place, but we will stick with Romil Star as our idea of the winner.
