Mercedes have tweaked a few things since the last race, and judging on qualifying look some way ahead of the pack. This should concern Antonelli and Russell, with George shading it along woth the fastest lap

This Dark Angel colt looked a smart prospect at two and continued that in his three-year-old career, winning after a runner-up effort at Yarmouth behind Spy Chief. He was hugely impressive at Ayr, winning by five lengths. He then went to York, travelling within himself before clipping heels with another runner and coming down. He looks potentially top-draw if that has not left any emotional scars. The stable are flying.

Very much looked in need of the run on seasonal return. Won this race last season off a three-pound higher mark. This should get run at a strong gallop, which will suit DAPPLED LIGHT. Hoping Joe Levey smuggles him out the back with cover and plays his run late. 10/1 is roughly what I envisaged, with four places on offer and two late non-runners.

-50

Morte Point was highly progressive last season. 04211211 form figures show. Surprisingly, turned 4 he has not kicked on. In fact, he finished down the field twice. This rates as a drop in class on his last run. Badly drawn at Ascot and on first run never competitive when not put into the race at any time. With ground questionable, a high draw could be a hindrance or a plus. But at 24/1 with 4 places up for grabs, he could be a bit of value if Lewis Edmunds puts him in the race, laying up closer than he has done on his first two starts.

Gweedore is interesting with WP on board, who knows the horse well, but has an awkward draw. Which swings things in favour of BELLARCHI. Her winning run came to an end at Chester last time before she'd even run (drawn wide) and can be forgiven that. She's got a plum draw in stall one here. She's a multiple course winner between 7 furlongs and a mile. The race will be run to suit. I fully expect her to enhance her four wins from five starts this afternoon.

Dannick is in last chance saloon for me. He was never put in the race on his first seasonal run and first after wind surgery. I feel he needs this trip. Just hope TQ gets him jiggy, as stalls open and he tends to miss the break. There really is no excuse for that. For the first time in a while we are getting a price, the fact the handicapper is slowly easing him. One of my five this season who I feel is seriously underestimated. With a strong pace to aim at, he should have the race run to suit. 22/1 with Paddy Power currently.

City won the FA Cup Saturday and need a win here to keep pressure on Arsenal going into the final weekend if they are to do the domestic treble. This won't be easy. The Cherries are a much improved, organised team this term. But I fully expect City to win by 2 goals. Another AH (maybe them) the pick at marginally better odds than the outright 90 minutes. Their squad is much deeper than the hosts less injury concerns.

Strong iron player will be the requisite around here, plotting to avoid the bunkers. I'm expecting this previous winner to be around where it matters on Sunday. He's a five-time major winner, so we'll be able to handle the pressures at the business end. 33/1 fair odds, with doubts over some of those ahead of him in the betting.

Jordan Spieth has been very much in and out for several months now. He lacks consistency, but the course setup should suit him. He's bigger than 50/1 in the odds places. Ladbrokes is going ten places.

Faded on Sunday, but there were signs he was getting his game together prior in the opening three rounds. He's a previous major champion. This course layout should suit him.

Ludvig Aberg

25 EW

@+1600

Win

Ludvig is playing consistently well of late. With no advantage for players around this underused course, creates a level playing field. An average of 10 bunkers a hole means players have to think their way through to the putting green. Iron play and putting of the Swede can see him go very close.

Scottie Scheffler

Scottie has only won once since Christmas, and although short, he brings decent iron form into this. Off the top 4 in the betting, fewer doubts surround him.

A course with bunkers galore at each hole, which could suit Ludvig to a tee. He's been in great form in recent weeks. Most consistent player on tour presently. Could set clubhouse lead at 25/1.

125/1 looks too big in this market. He's been in sparkling form on the PGA Seniors Tour, with several wins and placings. His overall game is in a great place and he comes into this with bags of confidence. Outright may be a tall order, but he could set the clubhouse lead.

15 runners and 4 places up for grabs. STIRRUP CUP has looked a shaded unfortunate in two recent handicap runs at Thirsk, still managing to get placed. This race should be run to suit, and he is a couple of points bigger than I envisaged, especially with Juan Les Pins a non-runner.

With Rory's well-documented foot/nail injury, he makes no appeal at the short odds. And Ludvig Åberg looks the value call, as he's in good form. Four top-8 finishes in his last five tournaments. Big shout.

Simba attracted significant support on handicap debut earlier in the month and could well follow up. However, he may find conceding 9 pounds to last year's winning stable in this a tough ask. Hares Breadth ran the best race in a while when third on last start, where she looked to have been drawn on the wrong side of the action.

Volenti is an incredibly quirky character, but he's well handicapped, 9 pounds below his last winning mark. Watching his last three runs back this term, he has never been put into the races at any stage. This should be run at a strong gallop, which will suit.

This revolves around SHALLOW, whom I'm hoping gets an uncontested lead. Although I'm no fan of George Wood, I'm hoping he gets her away on terms and brings her across to the stands rail. She was just denied last month at Yarmouth. The winner backed that up by being placed in a Group 3 next run. Won on the ground, five-time distance winner, and the headgear from Yarmouth is retained.

SCOTTISH DANCER is versatile tactics-wise and won well off the front end at Thirsk, showing great tenacity when tackled.

This step up in trip looks certain to suit.

With Champions League football secured and the new manager issue just waiting for Carrick's signature, things are looking up at Old Trafford. With Tricky Trees safe from relegation, I'm expecting a more attacking, free-flowing United performance with no pressure on them. Attacking quality is vastly superior to the visitors, who've been very Jekyll and Hyde in some of their recent performances. I anticipate the Red Devils winning this comfortably. I think evens on the Asian Handicap represents decent value.
