Verdict
Arthalot has yet to place over timber but he’s only had five runs and did have a pipe-opener on the Flat last month. FILANDERER has hardly set the world alight so far either but was improving in the spring and this is a very modest handicap. Only Fools hasn’t run badly in a couple of outings since wind surgery while Imperial Measure justified market support in a slightly stronger contest at Newton Abbot seven weeks ago. Miss Marette was a more recent winner while the returning Danton should be monitored for any market support.
