Recent winners Judge 'n Jury, Regal Royale and Equuleus Pictor make up the shortlist here and preference is for Judge n' Jury. One worry is that there is lots of pace on here and that it might set it up for a finisher, however Judge n' Jury impressed last time out when winning at Sandown. He did get the first run on runner-up Gentle Guru who was ridden by dopey of Seven Dwarves fame, however the form looks solid and a 6lb penalty may not be enough to stop him. The Tatling ran a good race last time and is admirable for his age, whilst Make My Dream and Equuleus Pictor are closely linked on a form line through Matteroffact. Monsieur Reynard knows how to win at the track and gets weight as a three-year-old, whilst Carribean Coral and Liberty Belle need to bounce back from recent average runs. The consistent front-runner Regal Royale must be feared as well but in a tough finale we will stick with Judge n' Jury.
