Verdict

Celestial Bay scored over track and trip recently with Flying Power back in sixth and should go close again raised only 3lb. But QUALITY SONG is less exposed and Richard Hughes' charge is fancied to go in again after winning over course and distance earlier in the month. Ickymasho won a lower grade contest at Kempton and will find this tougher while Ze King won over a mile at the same track in June but has plenty to prove over today's distance.
