Verdict

Of those to have run in bumpers, Nelson's Touch looks much the best. He might find this trip too short, though, so it is best to concentrate on the young Flat performers. Balashakh is the most experienced of them but is starting to look exposed, so this may centre around ABJAR and Impact Point , with the former given a narrow vote following his strong-finishing second at Newcastle last time.
