In depth
Verdict
Summerinthecity will need to improve on his earlier efforts over 7f to get involved while the inconsistent C&D winners Cockney Dancer and Lucky Dan will need one of their going days to figure. Fabled City has a shout on September's win at Epsom despite a 7lb rise but RESTAURATEUR has got his act together now. He recorded a cosy victory over track and trip last month and can follow-up. Divine Call and Showboating have been running well over 6f of late but Dubai Hills has done all his winning on the all-weather at Southwell.
