Verdict

MOTTRIB made a winning debut at Newbury last summer though could only manage third under a penalty at Leicester when last in action. But he still ran well under the circumstances given his saddle slipped and Roger Varian’s colt can make a winning return. Amathus won a maiden at Windsor with Mr Millarcky back in fourth and also carries a penalty while Beauty Choice drops down to today’s trip for the first time having gone close at over 7f. Brunel's Boy was fourth at Yarmouth between a couple of indifferent efforts and Tuscan Oasis is preferred upped in trip for this.
