        Verdict

        Flownaway looks to have been given an excellent chance to follow up his win here last month, off only a 2lbs higher mark. A progressive individual, this shorter trip will pose no problems and with Richard Quinn retaining the mount, he looks the one to be with. Westbound Road looks sure to play a part in this, but he does have a little to find to reverse recent running with Orthodox, even on these revised terms. The latter is certainly an improving type and this 6lbs higher mark isn't certain to stop him. Course specialist Amigo looks to need to come down a little in the weights, while handicap debutante Flotta is one to keep an eye on for the future.
