Going: Good (Good to Firm in places)
Surface: Turf
Draw Advantage: NoneClassical Wave struggled in rain-softened conditions at Sandown last time and may be better judged by her Windsor effort when first past the post only to be demoted to second. The City's Phantom has been impressive on fast ground at Yarmouth and Leicester but this looks a tougher contest, especially against BUGLE MAJOR. Richard Hughes' charge was far from disgraced when finishing in midfield in the Royal Hunt Cup at Ascot last time and this longer trip and a 2lb lower mark could give him a big chance. Sky Defender is interesting off what looks a workable rating, while You're Hired bounced back to form over a mile at Bath last time and a repeat of his Cambridgeshire fourth from last year would put him in the mix.
