Placed on his penultimate start in a similar race at Goodwood (same jockey in the saddle). And may have needed the run last time; yet to race on ground with soft in the description, so the betting can be a good guide if the heavens open.

Given plenty of time to get over his exertions as a juvenile but has been transformed by stepping up in trip. Has a 5lb higher mark to contend with after winning at Lingfield in July but may also find this extra furlong to his liking. Big player.

Kept busy since his belated introduction on the AW in January (missed his juvenile season); posted his best effort when placed at Goodwood in May (1m2f, good-to-soft). Well held in both starts since being gelded and a bit to find over this trip.

0-7 so far and not achieved much to set the pulse racing. Slight improvement last time but was still well held and he's probably safest left to his own devices on his second start back from a long break.

Verdict

A very ordinary finale can go to LANDUE, who took the step up in trip in his stride last time out and looks the most appealing option of the bunch drawn together for this. Ventura Magic knows how to win a race and is interesting now he reverts to the flat for the first time for his new yard. He rates as a better alternative than Sky Rocket, who has the ability to figure but has something to prove regarding the predicted state of the ground. The betting can guide where he is concerned.
