Verdict
Radetsky March could easily figure here if on a going day, while Numide and Enfant De Lune are among several who are potentially well treated. The latter is only 3lb higher than when successful on his reappearance at Sandown. Sunny Ledgend won at Newbury and Towcester before finding the company too hot in one of the big novice events at the Cheltenham Festival and Dragon's Den won at Exeter 11 days ago, but is 5lb higher here. SPEED MASTER wasn't disgraced in his bid for a four-timer in a hot Grade 3 handicap at Sandown last month. He should find this opposition more to his liking and can bounce back to winning ways.
