Verdict

Plenty with claims including Monsieur Lambrays, who finished ahead of Theatro when runner-up at Pontefract, while Natty Night went close at Lingfield and attempts 1m6f for the first time. Bombero also steps up in trip after scoring at Windsor but NUITS ST GEORGES scored over today’s distance at Sandown on his reappearance and has won in soft ground before. He’s preferred to Young Merlin, a runner-up on the same card at Sandown and likely to figure again while Seinesational, Gabrial The One and Well Funded are several others with a shout in an open affair.
