Verdict

Gimme Five came with a late run to beat Bold Runner less than a length at Bath last month when Kaizen Factor finished tailed off. Alan King's charge can come out best once again, despite worse terms. But KASHMIRI SUNSET is expected to improve further for this longer trip given he's a brother to the smart stayer Darley Sun among others and it's Ed de Giles' charge that get the vote. San Quentin looks best of the remainder after a third at Warwick on his reappearance.
