Verdict

Despite the small turnout, a case can be made for all three runners. The penny hasn't yet dropped for Wardlaw but Sir Mark Prescott should get the best out of him soon enough. La Tosca finished second at Ayr last Friday and should go well, but the vote goes to REEM RAK. After disappointing on her return at Nottingham, Roger Varian's filly bounced back to fill the runner-up spot when stepped up to 1m4f at Ffos Las and her pedigree offers plenty of hope that the extra yardage here is within reach.

Top Tip: Reem Rak (2)
Watch out for: Wardlaw (1)

A tight contest where all of the trio can be given a chance. Minor preference is for the experienced WARDLAW who pulled clear with a well backed unexposed rival last time in a strong race. That proved his stamina and he should be ideally suited by this long straight. Reem Rak relished the step up to 12f when runner up last time and could progress again over this longer trip. She can provide the main threat ahead of the consistent La Tosca who has proven herself versatile ground wise.
