A very tight opener in which all are given a fair chance. Legende D'art did run well here last season but his last eight starts have all been at Chelmsford. He's yet to score on Turf but is expected to go well. Epic Express has been chalk and cheese on his last two starts - both at this track - but has every chance if putting his latest run behind him. Mccann The Man was better last time at Wetherby and Hollie Doyle is booked for him again but the choice is G'DAAY. His last two runs have confirmed he's in good heart at present, he goes well at this trip and has been left on the same mark by the handicapper. Course regular Hi Ho Silver has each-way claims.
