Verdict

Commanche returned a four-length winner at Newcastle last month but has been upped 11lb for his trouble. New Rich was runner-up off today’s mark at Kempton last time and can figure but Quiet Warrior failed to cope with a 5lb rise in the weights on his latest start having landed a double before that. INDIAN AFFAIR is back on a wining mark and after a second at Wolverhampton last week when ahead of Colourbearer, Milton Bradley’s charge gets the nod to come good again in this.
