Verdict
Square Viviani has disappointed since arriving in this country but should strip fitter for a recent fourth at Sedgefield. Instant Replay should also have benefited from his reappearance and Sudski Star won over 2m here in March and is only a pound higher. Return Flight is starting to look well treated but has been out of sorts lately. RAINY CITY was second over 3m here in March and won later at Perth. Now with Donald McCain, the eight-year-old is eased in grade and can make a successful return to action with Brian Hughes doing the steering. Romulus Du Donjon may be the pick of the remainder.
