jumped well, made all and always going well, clear most of way, hard held, unchallenged
raced keenly in 3rd, went 2nd 6th, hit next, soon outpaced, never any chance with easy winner, eased run-in
shade keen, tracked (easy) winner, flattened 4th, lost 2nd 6th, hit next, soon outpaced and struggling, tailed off
DOUBLE TREASURE may carry a double penalty for last summer’s victories that included a course and distance success but is clear at the weights in this company and should be winning with a clear round. El Hageb Rose ran well for second at Chepstow recently but has a stack to find with the likely short-priced favourite on these terms while Solar Glory and hurdling debutant Downe Milking Lane are even harder to recommend.
