The small field doesn’t make this any easier with all six having a chance of some sort on their best form, the question is can they produce it? What A Welcome now features on a mark which makes a win more likely while Koeman wouldn’t be out of this if he could reproduce his Ascot winning form of last year. The ground may be too quick for Lariat to fulfil his earlier promise with Kosciuszko another as yet to blossom although his yard remains in cracking form. FANTASTIC BLUE steps up in grade but still looks as though he has more to offer despite a career-high mark after he was raised 3lb last time for winning at Leicester with the first-time cheekpieces a bonus.
