Verdict
Honour Rouge has shown progressive form for the step up to middle distances this term and still looks fairly treated despite handicap wins at Pontefract and Kempton. Alessandro Severo is another on the upgrade after recent all-weather wins including over the distance while Derwent showed improvement in first time blinkers last time and shapes as though this trip will suit.
