Verdict

Bhubezi may have needed his reappearance at Yarmouth but looks high enough in the weights. AMOR DE MI VIDA looked to be firmly back on track when making a winning return to action at Salisbury and could still be well treated only 3lb higher. Mister Bluebird was a course and distance winner in April but has struggled before in this higher grade while Rockett Man has ground to make up on Hotalena on Goodwood running. Hemmsa may be best of the rest.
