Verdict

This doesn’t look as competitive as the first division and it’s a good opportunity for CASTING VOTE (NAP) to open his account after a very promising debut at Haydock in a maiden that has worked out well. Dream Location placed at Redcar but that was over 7f and, while he’ll improve over this trip, he needs more. Kitzbuhel was very green at Chelmsford and may have more scope than the Godolphin entry and any market support for the filly Propriety should be noted as she cost 1.2milliongns and is by Galileo and a half-sister to a winning miler. John Locke also has a really nice pedigree but Bring Him Home has looked one-paced.
