Verdict

A fairly inauspicious start to proceedings but Estibdaad arrives off the back of a win at Lingfield while Collodi has only found one too good in a couple of recent runs at Kempton, though is best at a mile. CAPTAIN FELIX won over this trip on Turf at Beverley in August, however, and Simon Walker's presence in the saddle is a massive plus. He looks the one to beat, though Lean On Pete has done most of his winning around here and can't be discounted. This looks much too short for Noguchi but Party Royal could be interesting dropped in class.
