A highly competitive renewal in which Gigginstown have a host of live chances. It might be worth taking a chance on the unexposed CAP YORK after a solid effort in Grade 2 company last time and he should continue to progress now in handicap company. Cuneo should be popular after a course and distance success last time out while the mare Pleasure Dome is an interesting runner for last year's winning stable on ground she ought to relish.
