Prior to a fair run in the Scottish Sprint Cup last time, DESERT LAW ran a fine race in the Epsom Dash, and one that it may be easy to overlook given he finished as low as seventh, though getting to within two lengths of winner Caspian Prince. He's actually 1lb lower in the handicap now which should certainly prove to be a workable mark on ground that, if remaining as forecast, he has won on before. The draw would be the only slight question mark but being in stall 10 of 20 means if Paul Midgley is clever he should be able to use it to his advantage, and in that case he would take plenty of beating. Though much higher in the handicap last year's winner Sors shouldn't be ignored, while Cenotaph should have plenty of improvement in him for some top connections.
