Verdict

No Poppy won this last year and despite being out of the handicap can race from a lower mark. She showed that she is ready to win again on her latest start behind Dream Walker at Ayr. GRAPHIC has been in excellent form and looks the one to be on. After victories at Haydock and Kempton he ran his best race to date when fourth in the Cambridgeshire where he led for most of the way. The Lincoln winner Levitate returned to winning ways when beating Brae Hill comfortably at Ayr and if the expected rain arrives he must be on the shortlist. Rockalong showed that this is his best trip with a fine effort at Newmarket and there should be more to come from Luca Cumani's charge as there should from Asatir, who was caught in the shadow of the post at Headquarters last time.
