Verdict
Pottlerath has run here three times and is yet to finish out of the frame. He won over a shorter trip last time but stamina is not a problem giving he was successful over 3m2f at Warwick last season. However, he was beaten fair and square by MANINTHESHADOWS at Doncaster at the start of the year and Jonjo O’Neill’s stayer should confirm the form if ready after a break. Lily Glitters is no forlorn hope after a very encouraging reappearance over 2m7f at Bangor.
