Finished last dropped to 6f (handicap) last month; has won here in the past but largely disappointing since successful in a maiden plate at Scottsville in November; others perhaps more persuasive as has more on his plate in this

All career victories going right handed; all wins on all-weather; stepped up to this distance (handicap) when finishing towards the rear of 15 latest; the assessor relents a little; others are preferred despite this looking a little easier than last time

Verdict

This is a tight one to call but it's hard to get away from JAZZ FESTIVAL who has seen the form of his latest run well advertised and has won here before. Riccardo should be in the shake-up.
