Verdict
Our Reward made all for a facile victory at Fakenham last month but then ran poorly over fences at Chepstow. He's 8lb higher here but One Night In Milan was chasing a hat-trick and going comfortably enough when falling four out at Kelso. He hasn't proved he stays this far but good ground will be in his favour. Katy Royal landed a Hexham maiden in May and was still there when falling on a return visit last month but SCENTED LILY (NAP) looks the one to beat. She showed that staying in her game when comfortably landing a 2m7f handicap at Market Rasen and will be even better suited by this trip. Lawtop Legend has been going well on this type of ground and deserved his victory at Hexham.
