Verdict
Zhui Feng has kept better company since winning at Kempton in February but didn’t run well on soft going at Goodwood 10 days ago and is now visored. My Style was slowly away and never travelling here at the start of the month but is better than that. EYE OF THE WATER led until inside the final furlong at Doncaster on his reappearance and will strip fitter today. He placed off higher marks last summer and is a previous course and distance winner. Able Kane got back to winning ways at Leicester but is now on a career-high mark and he has to be delivered late. However, he is still preferred to Wolverhampton winner A Sure Welcome.
