Verdict

Another open sprint in which a chance can be taken on LETHAL NYMPH. The seven-year-old belied odds of 80/1 to finish a creditable fourth over C&D on Dante Day and could build on it given the likely strong pace, especially with the added bonus of a 1lb ease in the handicap. Fortification was another to run well at a huge price, winning at odds of 40/1 over track and trip the following day. Brian Ellison's charge has few miles on the clock and could go well once again from a handy racing weight. Hamilton winner Vantheman and reopposing second Reigning Profit enter the reckoning, as does Goodwood runner-up King Of Light. Alvin and Pilgrim are just two more to consider.

Top Tip: Lethal Nymph (15)
Watch out for: Fortification (20)

Expert View Verdict

Any number worthy of considering in this big-field handicap, the 3yo Fortification is bound to be popular after springing a 40-1 surprise in a 3yo handicap over C&D at the Dante meeting, with further progress likely, but it's fellow 3yo ALVIN who appeals most. Although stall 21 could be risky, he's all speed and had excuses at Chester last time - he stumbled leaving the stalls. His earlier Bath win puts him in with a good chance. It was tempting to side with Squealer at big odds, being a former C&D winner who finds himself on a good mark these days. Air Force One, below form at the Dante meeting after a slow start, and the 4yo King Of Light, who made a pleasing reappearance, are others to consider.
