Verdict

Frankie Dettori is booked for Swendab who is in really good heart at present. He routed his opponents by 6l at Ffos Las before being reeled in very late the last twice at Chepstow and Windsor, both over 6f. The drop to 5f looks a logical move and he is very tempting but CRIMSON QUEEN is taken to have his measure. An easy winner here in June, she subsequently finished fourth behind Cincinnati Kid in a 5f race at Doncaster that is working out really well and can concede weight all round. Richard Hughes is a good booking for Pal Of The Cat who was only beaten a half length in the contest won by Tychaios at Windsor last time whilst Trinityelitedotcom is hard to assess on the back of success in a very modest Bath maiden.
