Yorkidding usually runs well enough fresh to merit some consideration off top weight and his trainer was amongst the winners this weekend already. He may be better seen next time out however. Despite the booking of Ryan Moore, it is hard to get excited about Paris Protocol, though if money should arrive it must be heeded on this return to the track having been gelded since his last appearance. The Tartan Spartan showed up well at Musselburgh on handicap debut and should have more to offer but it might be worth siding with GREAT AND SMALL who was not disgraced in Listed company last time out and has the potential to offer more on just a sixth racecourse appearance.
