Racing Post verdict
Third-partySanditon has shaped well in recent starts and ran to his mark at Catterick eight days ago, going within two lengths of the winner off this exact official mark at 7f; with first-time cheekpieces added and many rivals in indifferent form, this looks a good opportunity. Classy Clarets looks the chief threat after going close from the front in his latest start off the same mark, while Willowinghurn and Rajstar also hold valid form claims. Sanditon is our selection.
