Verdict

Modest fare which affords a decent opportunity for DICKY MINT to deliver a first career success. He's gone well here the last twice, notably when a respectable third behind Sweet Ovation over a furlong shorter a week ago. Admittedly, there is a slight question mark over this trip but he does look notably well treated with the 7lb claim of his young pilot taken into account. Son Of May has delivered improved Fibresand form the last twice and rates the main danger if able to translate that recent improvement to this surface. Johnson's Cat has some fair form in the book in the context of this contest and completes the shortlist if ready to roll after an absence dating back to early October.
