Verdict
BALDOMERO has shown a distinct liking for this venue having won one of his three outings here so far and finishing runner-up on both of the other occasions, including in this grade last time. Dubai Icon won a handicap at Windsor before beaten in Listed company but Positive Impact needs to find a bit more off his current mark. The same comment also applies to Spinaround and Rebel Territory, though the latter finished in front of Notre Belle Bete when fourth at Ascot while the unexposed Bass Player can probably be forgiven a poor effort at York.
