Wallop, fifth in the Mill Reef 12 days ago, gets a handy 4lb from the previous winners and 8lb from Legend Of Xanadu. He should go close to shedding his maiden tag but BOLT ACTION (NAP) deserves to get his head back in front after placing three times in Listed company since making a winning debut in May. Bakeel has become disappointing but Flag Flying can probably be forgiven his run in the Sirenia Stakes at Kempton as he missed the break and didn’t appear to handle the Polytrack.
