MUCHO APPLAUSE looks like the one to beat with the yard in flying form and the return to softer conditions likely to suit. Glorious Forever is less exposed than a lot of these and he should remain competitive from a 4lb higher mark. If Mister Blue Sky can build on his Nottingham effort he should run well in conditions he has already proven himself in.
