This is really competitive but I’m struggling to see many negatives regarding ANDALEEP and that includes his price. He is yet to run a bad race for this yard making a winning start at Goodwood back in June and holding his form extremely well since. He finished third at Haydock and then chased home Pledge Of Honour here before bumping into Good Regal at Epsom. He then took his form up a notch to win readily at Windsor and again impressed beating a good yardstick in Bavardages at Beverley. He is up another 5lb and in a deeper race but he loves this C&D having won over it 3 times before and the way he travelled last time suggests he is in the form of his life. His draw is a little tricky as I think it’s better to be high here but he has pace around him and I can still see this panning out favourably. Pledge Of Honour looks the danger up another 6lb.
