'I expect him to impress' - our panel give their views on a crackerjack weekend
Gary Bardwell, Natalie Green and Jamie Hart join our team on a Group 1 day
The Cambridgeshire is the big betting race of the day. Who do you like?
Gary Bardwell, former jockey My boss Saeed bin Suroor runs three and I think Long Tradition will run a big race. He's working very well but a bit of juice in the ground would help. We also have Royal Marine, who was a Group 1 winner as a two-year-old, and he always works like a good horse at home so if he can bring his homework to the track he could be bang there.
Natalie Green, ITV broadcaster The right horses are at the top of the betting and this race looks right up Astro King's street. The vote, though, goes to Chichester, who was so impressive at Ayr recently. This is a tougher task but he's 9lb well in and has a progressive profile.
Jamie Hart, Tote It's the Trifecta rollover race where it historically doubles the Tricast dividend, so it's worth perming a few in a bid for the big payday. Breath Caught impressed over course and distance on fast ground this time last year and Astro King has to go in too.
