Verdict

SILVRETTA went close over 7f last year and looks worth another try over the distance now handicapping having won a novices‘ race over 6f at Newcastle with plenty left in the tank. Craven has been thereabouts in this grade on the Turf while Triggered, Visibility and He‘s A Gentleman have all won lower grade contests here recently. Hieronymus placed at Ascot earlier but has disappointed in both subsequent starts.
