Strong pace from Quartershare and King Ale matching motors with Northumbria close at hand. The well-related DETERMINATION (5) (half to G1 winner Bella Vella) is a very consistent commodity who has hit the top-five in seven of his past eight starts and will be at peak fitness for this. Gets 3kg weight relief with the claim and is capable of featuring in the finish again. NORTHUMBRIA (4) was a touch disappointing last time out but the two placings here prior were full of merit. Worth another chance. BOOM COURT (1) has been plying his trade in harder races down south and will appreciate the drop back in grade. Gets Wiggins on from the inside alley and can improve sharply against this line-up. QUARTERSHARE (6) has placed two from three over this track and trip and looks one for the multiples. SANTORINI SUMMER (3) strips fitter second-up from the break and may earn a cheque. SUGGESTED PLAY: Determination to salute.
