As the build up to a big weekend at Epsom ramps up, we are reminded of a recent Classic winner at that fixture in this 7f handicap. Commanding Prince, a Too Darn Hot half-brother to 2018 Derby winner Masar, has been running well in turf handicaps and it feels inevitable one will fall his way soon. The four-year-old was late to the track, making his debut only in February, but made up for lost time by landing two of his three novice starts on the all-weather.

Title chasers Dan Skelton and Willie Mullins go head to head with Asta La Pasta and Westport Cove in a £100,000 feature that provides both quality and depth. Asta La Pasta competes off a career-high 135 after making all in a four-runner Ayr affair that fell apart from halfway. He had previously finished 28 lengths behind Teddy Blue when last of four to complete the course at Kempton and is only 1lb better off with that Harry Derham-trained rival.
