Verdict

A winner over this trip at Haydock in June, MAVERICK OFFICER has since shaped promisingly in two hot handicaps and ought to find this event less taxing. He's fancied to go well for his in-form rider, though very few of these can be ruled out.. Balgair was closing at the line when denied a hat-trick at Newmarket and is in here from the same mark, while Daira Prince was in excellent form prior to a Sandown flop and shouldn't be harshly judged now back from a short break. Breden goes up in grade after a win at Newbury while Petrus is running consistently well. Bint Dandy knows how to win here but is one to be wary of given so many rivals with claims.
