    Verdict

    Camino has gone quite well on two of the last three outings but needs to improve again but Archie Stevens drops to a rating in the 50s for the first time in his career. He has a chance off this new mark but it remains hard to be enthusiastic about his chances. Ask The Guru has failed to make the frame in 2017 and has been dropped in the ratings accordingly but would have a chance on the best of his form. DEER SONG remains the safest option, however, despite a career record of 0-30. Crucially he's shaped much better the last twice and arrives in decent form after a narrow defeat in a fair Goodwood sprint last month.
