Verdict

Israr has come up short over today’s trip since scoring over 1m2f at Newbury and returns from a lay-off. Moktasaab went close at the latter track more recently when WANDERING ROCKS finished third. But the latter has more scope off his current mark and is taken to turn the tables with Ryan Moore’s presence in the saddle another positive. Madame Ambassador has won twice at Newmarket while Frankie gets the leg-up on Sir Rumi, who finished ahead of Savvy Knight at Kempton last time.
