Cuppacoffee got his head in front at the fourth time of asking at Carlisle a week ago but that isn’t particularly strong form. There are question marks about Tailor’s Row after his flop at Newcastle and Tahoo, who finished last in a conditions race at Musselburgh after impressing on his debut. FAYEZ was last seen making late progress in the Windsor Castle at Royal Ascot and is on a fair mark for this. The return to 6f will suit and he can take a trappy-looking race.
