oddschecker Verdict
The decision to turn BEST RATE out quickly suggests he's come out of last week's Ascot race in good nick, and that success at the Berkshire venue very much sets the standard. Assuming he can run to the same level, Richard Hannon's charge ought to prove a tough nut to crack. C&D winners Jez Bomb and Sailthisshipalone won't go down without a fight.
Prediction: 1st Best Rate, 2nd Jez Bomb, 3rd Sailthisshipalone
