Verdict
A poor field contest this bumper with Little Dwarf, Moscow Executive and Lord Brock the ones to concentrate on with the vote going to the last named. Nigel Twiston-Davies always does well in these events and although this horse was beaten a fair way when third in his only run to date we feel that improvement is on the cards. Little Dwarf has the services of AP McCoy and any market support should be noted but his form so far this summer has not been fantastic but this is a poor race. Mark Brisbourne has his flat string in good spirits at the moment and he trains the new comer Moscow Executive. The few bumper runners he has seem to always run well but whether he is good enough to win first time of asking remains to be seen. But for the winner we return to Lord Brock.
