Verdict
Right Action is clearly in good heart and was only narrowly beaten at Wetherby last time but has gone up further in the handicap for that performance and could be vulnerable here. Heir of Excitement made all at Carlisle and has the ability to follow up but may not be able to get to the front from his middle draw so preference is for ARC ROYAL. His sole success to date came in a 7f nursery at this course last season and, with an inside draw, he is ideally placed to grab the early lead. Jet Setter’s form is only moderate and he has to contend with a wide draw while Our Greta was well beaten on her seasonal debut and Poetic Force and Gala Celebration need some help from the handicapper.
