Experienced amateur Ross Birkett gets the call-up on the top-weight CHARMING WHISPER (1), who ran another solid race in defeat when second over this trip at Newbury last time. He narrowly gets the vote. At the other end of the weights, the improving hat-trick-seeking PRIDE OF NEPAL (9) commands respect after handicap wins at Goodwood (1m1f) and Brighton (1m4f). TERRIES ROYALE (4) rallied well to score at Ascot before finishing a good second at Doncaster (1m) last time and he should put up another bold bid in current form. Last-start Wolverhampton (1m1/2f) scorer FOOLS RUSH IN (8) goes well over this distance and will have no problem with the return to turf.
