Verdict

EQUIDAE (NAP) has improved with each start since tackling this surface culminating in a comfortable victory over 7f on Thursday so a penalty shouldn't prevent a quick follow up. Fourth-placed Elhafei appeared to have every chance in that race and looks held but was only a length behind Straitouttacompton over the track and trip earlier and collateral form points to the selection. Cape Greco, a winner at Lingfield and Wolverhampton, was racing in France last summer and will be having his first start on the surface and though Limerick Lord has won around here he's been badly out of form.
