Verdict

DEL PARCO carries his 6lb penalty for a runaway win last week and connections bid to strike again before the handicapper gets his teeth into him. He should make a bold bid. Many of his rivals are better on the AW, but Saluti and Balgair both have fair claims, while last year's winner Art Echo is respected. Loujain represents a top yard but has been disappointing, while Zain Star is not out of it if on his game.
