Verdict

BOURNE will be a popular choice here and deservedly so. He found only the old stager Halicarnassus too good when runner-up in the Old Newton Cup at Haydock last time and Luca Cumani's grey won twice over today's shorter trip last year. Meydan winner Bay Willow was a long way behind him at Haydock but was making his seasonal debut and better is expected here, while York winner Barren Brook could also figure over this longer trip. Licence To Till has shown no recent improvement despite his slide down the weights and this is tougher than the races Eltheeb won earlier this year. Kay Gee Bee will appreciate the drop in class and there may be more to come from Beverley winner Pass Muster.
