A nigh impossible to solve renewal of the Portland which features a couple of previous race winners, Muthmir (2014) and A Momentofmadness (2018). Clues can be gained from the Sky Bet and Symphony Group Handicap at York (5½f) with the likes of Marnie James (second) and Arecibo (third) among plenty to feature there. Bielsa remains unbeaten for Kevin Ryan (3-3) but this is a much sterner test of his credentials, while old foes Green Power and Embour are possibles. However, with ample pace on that side we'll elect to stick with those drawn high and chance the pacy JUSTANOTHERBOTTLE. Frankie Dettori is an able deputy for William Buick.
