Racing Post verdict
Third-partyEnglish Oak is our selection at Hamilton, sharing the joint-highest figure in the race with Rhoscolyn, but with a stronger recent scoring sequence to back it up. Rhoscolyn, Monarch's Gold and Salam Dubawi head the dangers, with Rhoscolyn matching the selection on our figures despite a yard currently out of form. Monarch's Gold has been a model of consistency without adding the win his placed efforts deserve, while Salam Dubawi arrives in good order having been competitive in recent starts. With high confidence in the selection's superior recent form, English Oak gets the vote in this competitive six-runner heat.
