Mr Tyrrell beat Old News over this trip at Sandown last summer but recent placed efforts have come over a mile. BRAZEN BOLT won over 6f at Newmarket last month but his three wins on Tapeta last year came over this trip and he looks the pick of the weights in this ahead of Safran, who was well backed at Thirsk 12 days ago, and bottom weight Truth In Jest. Sadiqaa finished behind Old News at Leicester but missed the break and is capable of better, though Beverley third Yanifer may be a bigger danger on this occasion.
