Verdict

PLUTOCRACY could not be in better form and is fancied to take this further step up in grade in his stride and extend his unbeaten record this season. He still had plenty in the tank when completing his hat-trick at Salisbury earlier this month. Chesterfield is much better than he showed at Ascot last month but Evangelist only just won a four-runner race at Warwick last time and is 4lb higher here. Quest For More likes fast ground and showed he stayed the trip at Leicester earlier this month but this is a much stronger heat. Savanna La Mar has been highly tried but was beaten 20 lengths at Chester last time.
