Verdict

Romain De Senam came right back to form when runner-up at Uttoxeter last month and went one better at Newton Abbot. Kauto Riko has become expensive to follow but Dressedforsuccess boasts a near-perfect record here, though usually needs a run. Havana Hermano has been harshly raised 2lb for finishing third at Fakenham so this can go to HEREDITARY RULE with John McConnell’s raider relishing the step up to 3m last time at Ayr.
