Verdict

This Listed sprint is normally run at Salisbury and the Hannon yard has a fine record in the race. Moyassar is their representative this time and has been gelded since disappointing at Ascot last summer but Mark Johnston landed this with a three-year-old in 2018 so MRS BOUQUET gets the vote. She rattled up a quickfire hat-trick in July last year culminating with a victory at this venue and looks ready for this step up in class. Open Wide has the advantage of a recent run and can figure while Bungee Jump made a winning return at Newmarket, though this is much tougher. Corinthia Knight beat Puds in Listed company in September while Wise Counsel won a couple of handicaps in 2019 and makes most appeal of the rest.
