Verdict

Kashgar is chasing a four-timer and won twice over the trip at Chepstow in June, beating GABRIAL'S KING, Montaff and L Frank Baum on the latest occasion. However, those rivals are all better off at the weights today and we fancy David Simcock's charge to come out best now as he was checked in his run last time when starting a hot favourite. Presto Volante is entitled to be thereabouts again and Bernard Llewellyn also runs Filatore but Sign Manual probably needs to drop a few pounds. Zarosa has been in good form and could figure off bottom weight and is preferred to Riptide and Eshtyaaq of the others.
