Verdict

LONGHOUSE SALE is impossible to oppose having won all three starts in bumpers with consummate ease. Templepark’s second at Worcester looks the best recent form among the opposition, though Represented is better than he showed at Plumpton in May. Avonmore never threatened when third at Newton Abbot while Roystory would need to be above average to make a winning debut.
