An excellent prize has attracted a cracking field with nothing ruled out. Flying Pursuit won the race in 2017 and a year later while Muscika scored a year ago though that was on his favoured soft ground. The former's yard also has Golden Apollo entered but he's worse off for a half-length defeat a year ago. Gulliver travelled to Ireland for a premier handicap at the Curragh but lost all chance out of the gates. Mondammej ran his best race to date at Ascot last time though could have done without a 3lb rise while Giogiobbo takes a significant rise in class after completing a hat-trick. STREAMLINE hasn't quite lived up to his two-year-old promise but wasn't beaten far at Newcastle last time and is well up to this grade at his best so gets the nod in a wide-open handicap.
