Verdict
Most have these have been awarded an official rating and there's not much between the leading contenders. BULL BAY looks to have the slightly superior form having been placed in similar company on the Polytrack and he's just preferred to Stepturn, dropping back in trip for his first start since May. Lingfield fourth Red Ramesses is another with claims but the remainder have something to find on today's terms with Summer Sun and Clapped looking the best of those.
