Verdict

A case can be made for a few of these but EMPIRICAL's form is on an upward curve and he is fancied to resume winning ways after finding only one too good over C&D last time. Interstate remains with few miles on the clock and rates the chief threat on the back of a breakthrough novice success at Newcastle, while Law Court is weighted to go well if shrugging off a lesser effort at Ascot.
