It would be dangerous to fully dismiss Merchant Of Venice as he returns to the AW at a track he always tends to run well at. The form of the race River Dawn contested when third has since been given a boost with the second winning since, & he is likely to be a better proposition on this surface too. Dargel is likely to be a short price which is off-putting on his first run after a fairly decent break, wind surgery & being gelded. His recent third behind Rangali Island over C&D does look particularly strong form. We'll go with JACK D'OR who rarely runs a bad race, is a C&D winner, and has fitness on his side after running respectably at Goodwood last month.
