King Frankel has been a model of consistency already this term, following up a Pontefract second with a 32-length win in a small field at the same venue. He took the step up in class for the London Gold Cup at Newbury in his stride when finding only one too good and has to be considered. It may be worth taking him on with the course experience of PATIENT DREAM here though. Ralph Beckett’s showed a real liking for this idiosyncratic venue when successful over shorter last time and the step up in trip could help him overcome a 7lb hike. Freak Out is interesting if he stays, while Greatgadian was a shade disappointing on his handicap bow but wasn’t stopping over Sandown’s 10 furlongs there. WIN: PATIENT DREAM
DANGER: KING FRANKEL
