A typically-trappy sprint but top weight LOUIE DE PALMA has to go on the short-list as he probably produced a new career-best at Newmarket earlier this month having won well at Ascot previously – he looks well drawn. The three-year-old Naughty Rascal looks a danger on his latest second here over 5f when he was doing his best work at the finish. Daschas has been in good form before finding things happening too quickly in the Dash at Epsom while Sunsprite has his sights lowered again and also comes into the reckoning. Erissimus Maximus, Green Power and Open Wide are others who could play a part.
