In depth
Verdict
Master Chef and Nathan Dee are interesting newcomers here but Jamie Osborne's Ten Down sets a fair standard having found just one too good in each of his two starts and he gets the vote to go one better today. Richard Hannon's Luscious Lips is related to winners and could be of interest on her debut but she may do better against her own sex so may be best watched. Red Expresso showed promise when a close third on her debut at Windsor but is strictly held by the selection on running that day, while Rough Rock would need to step up on the form shown first time out behind Winker Watson at Newbury. John Gosden's Master Chef and Richard Hannon's Nathan Dee both make plenty of appeal on pedigree but Ten Down has shown useful form in both starts so far and he looks the one they all have to beat.
