Verdict

BROUGHTON EXCELS won here before going close over course and distance once again and may be the one to side with. Knockout Blow was beaten less than a length over 5f at Kempton last time while Wild Flower landed a double before struggling at Southwell. At Your Service scored here back in January and is now back on the same mark while Split Down South may do better today having only his second start for new connections.
