A cracking handicap with the vote going to upwardly-mobile 3-y-o AUDITOR, who enhanced his reputation despite failing to land the hat-trick when runner-up to another thriving sort at Newbury last month. There's a bigger perfomance in Montassib and he's second choice, though Akhu Najla demands respect given his pedigree, looks and the red-hot form of his stable.
