Verdict

Blue De Vega won easily at Leicester but has been raised 9lb for his trouble and has won just the once on the all-weather so far. MONDAMMEJ is not the most consistent but only 3lb higher than when scoring at Haydock last month, Anthony Brittain’s charge gets the vote in this similar grade. Caroline Dale finished in front of Royal Birth when third over track and trip last time though this is tougher while Newyorkstateofmind is also upped in class though is still preferred to Mokaatil of the remaining pair.
