    Verdict

    Landucci can defy topweight at the expense of Kew The Music, with Sweet Pickle and Willheconquertoo best of the rest. Landucci was well supported when going in at the Sussex track 19 days ago, and was driven out to lead near the line. That was his third course and distance success in just four visits, and as long as they go a decent pace here, he can come from behind again to defy the handicapper. Kew The Music caught the eye when staying on at Thirsk eight days ago and should go well for his in-form stable, while Sweet Pickle, another hold-up performer, is in form and has the assistance of Frankie Dettori. He has more on his plate though than when winning at Wolverhampton and is passed over. Willheconquertoo has won over the course and distance in the past and is not badly handicapped on past efforts here, but Andrew Reid's inmate has been racing over shorter trips of late. He was unlucky in running at Windsor last time and is worth a try back over seven furlongs. He should go well again, but Landucci loves it here and will be hard to beat.
