Laureate Crown silk
Laureate Crown
Selected at: 14/1

Hugo Palmer’s Laureate Crown is clearly a horse on the up and may well have a big prize such as this in him. The son of Victor Ludorum has improved this season and handicaps have made a big difference. He was a narrow winner at Wolverhampton in March but clearly kept a little for himself, as he managed to follow up off a 6lb higher mark in Esher Cup at Sandown a month later. Up another 5lb here, there’s a good chance that he remains ahead of the handicapper.
