Verdict

NAVAJO STAR was much improved stepped up to 2m at Chelmsford last time and there should be more to come from her over today’s trip. She’s preferred to Mr Davies, who also arrives on the back of a good effort over 2m at Chelmsford having slipped down the weights. The latter can confirm running with Legalized while the veteran Hallstatt was ahead of Jan Smuts with Traditional Dancer, Kisumu and Desktop all well beaten when scoring over track and trip last month and is another to consider.
