Six time winner including twice from 22 turf starts. Finished third of five at Brighton (good-to-firm) when sent off favourite on his return to turf last month and races off a 2lb lower mark today.

Successful over 1m at Kempton off a 9lb lower mark in February though shaped as if he a drop in trip would help subsequently. Made all for his Kempton success and while yet to place in six outings on turf he looks to be the sole pace angle in this contest.

Verdict

PANTHER PATROL ran well on his return to turf racing at Brighton over this distance last month. The selection is now rated 3lb lower than for his latest turf win and can get the better of the likely pacesetter Zabdi who made all to win at Kempton in February and while there is a slight question mark about whether he will have the pace for this 6f trip he has led for each of his last three starts and can get the better of Dynamic Girl who is less exposed than most of her rivals in this contest.
