Verdict
Empire De Maulde was fourth in this last year but hasn’t run since. In a tight handicap, JAVA POINT may offer a bit of value as he didn’t respond to cheekpieces at Cheltenham last month when behind Hidden Heroics - the aids are dispensed with here. Saint Arvans still has stamina to prove but Kinondo Kwetu is an improving young stayer judged on his third in a Grade 3 here last month while Go On Chez has been ready to run for a while. Lounge Lizard is on a roll but is another upped in class.
