    Verdict

    The step up to 1m4f was always going to suit KEY GOLD and she was ridden with plenty of confidence to get off the mark at Musselburgh last month after a promising reappearance on the Polytrack. There should be more to come from Mark Johnston's filly and she can take this rise in grade in her stride. Daneking should improve for his comeback run behind Samba King at Sandown and Blades Lad made all at Ripon, though has been done no favours by the handicapper. More interesting is Estedaama, who is stoutly bred and certainly wasn't stopping when successful over 1m1f at Folkestone last time. Green Mitas isn't without ability and should get off the mark when his sights are lowered a little but Spanish Wedding was a little disappointing at Kempton and is a pound higher here.
