Lordship won really easily at Yarmouth last time and obviously is entitled to plenty of respect but this is tougher and he’ll likely have to come off the bridle to win so who knows if he’ll find as much as he promises. I prefer the chances of PLEDGEOFALLEGIANCE and at a bigger price. He has really come into his own since going up in trip and arrives here with a perfect record 2-2 over the trip. He stayed on gamely to win well at Doncaster last month and with more to come could complete the hat-trick. If Lordship does disappoint it might leave Rogue Sea as the main danger. He has won 2 from 3 and the way he stayed on to win at Ripon last time he should be well suited by this trip. Banderas got up late at Chester last time and has potential too but this is a much deeper contest.
