Verdict

Recent C&D runner-up ALMATY STAR could get the run of the race here and still looks well treated off an unchanged mark (due to go up 2 lb). Stablemate Cloud King looked unlucky behind Alligator Alley at Southwell and has solid claims to reverse that form on better terms, while Solvency hasn't been long with the excellent James Owen yard and shaped encouragingly when 1½ lengths third (behind Almaty Star) here last time.
