A typically competitive renewal of this race but last year's winner INTISAAB is 2lb below the handicap mark he won off in 2018 and he can go well with Dettori in the saddle. There are no shortage of dangers with the likes of Manshood in here who was only narrowly denied over course and distance last time out. Chessman is another with C&D form and he met trouble in running in a Listed event here last time.
