Verdict

Chepstow regular Taste The Wine had stable companion Bazart behind over C&D last time but has to give weight to all but one of his rivals. Mayan Flight is consistent and should be thereabouts again though, like Captain Oats, he's had a couple of months off since his last run. Femme Royale is only a pound higher than when just beaten at Ffos Las and should figure but we'll give another chance to DANGEROUS TO KNOW. Hughie Morrison's filly didn't appear to enjoy the Polytrack last time but she need only reproduce her third on soft ground at Warwick previously to be a serious contender in this.
