FormscanBy Gary Carson - English raider CROWN OF OAKS is hard to ignore running off a penalty in this. The Wootton Bassett gelding was a very easy winner at Ascot, with a cut in the ground, eight days ago. He’s set to run off 100 in future handicaps so is 7lb well in here in a very valuable contest. Sujet won a big pot here on ‘Derby Day’ and remains relatively unexposed. He comes here off the back of a win at Killarney and commands respect. Glen To Glen was beaten at a short enough price over course and distance on his last outing in July. He is tried in blinkers now and is another for the shortlist.
