Verdict

Rhebus Road won easily at Beverley but has been hit with an 8lb rise in a better race. PRISON BREAK has been running well over longer trips but should have the pace to cope here and gets the no ahead of the steadily-improving Olympus and last week’s Nottingham runner-up Norman Kindu. Orchestral is unexposed but needs to take a step forward.
