Verdict
Dispour was narrowly beaten at Newton Abbot carrying top weight having won at Warwick earlier but Maestro Royal was 10 lengths behind Banyu at Fontwell despite finishing second. GIOIA DI VITA is preferred as he has been keeping better company than this and a repeat of his second to McKinley at Sandown in April should see him go very close in this. Here's Herbie has plenty to find with the selection on latest running while Castlemorris King faces a tougher task than when landing a claiming hurdle over these obstacles recently.
