C&D winner last month and followed up at Lingfield (2m) 10 days later. 8 lb higher now but it doesn't look enough to prevent him completing a hat-trick.

Unreliable sort. 12/1, first run since leaving Derek Shaw when fourth of 6 in handicap at Chelmsford (1¾m) 11 days ago, needing stronger gallop. Needs a couple of these to falter.

Forecasts

Queensland Boy (11/4), Fashionelle (10/3), Sophar Sogood (9/2), Abraaj (7/1), Star Delta (7/1), Grand Duchess Olga (11/1), Young Endless (12/1), Warrior Lion (14/1), Prince Abu (18/1), Armathia (25/1), Chef De Troupe (80/1)

The thriving QUEENSLAND BOY is taken to defy the handicapper and complete the hat-trick. Grand Duchess Olga is another who arrives at the top her game and can provide the chief threat ahead of John Butler's Sophar Sogood.
