In depth

Verdict

Arch Of Titus, Mayor Of London and Chastity are the three that catch the eye here and preference is for Mayor of London. Mayor of London ran well first time out at Nottingham finishing fourth, and staying on at the finish. The stable is going well and he can improve for the run and play a part in the finish here in this wide open affair. Arch of Titus has only had one run and although that came on the all weather he should not discounted in this big field. He did show ability to be a respectable fourth and can put that experience to good use here. Chastity ran in a small field here on her debut and although beaten some distance in third, she should not be written off, with Kim Tinkler in good form with a winner on Wednesday. Mayor of London though looks to have the soundest credentials and can take this.
