Verdict

Some disappointing types face the starter here. Sacred Square has only found one too good on four occasions but hasn't been getting any closer. Quick Brew has already had 17 runs over timber and was well beaten last time over fences while Nuts Well looked one-paced in bumpers and may need further. BENTONS LAD was beaten when taking a heavy fall at Southwell in June but that 3m trip was clearly too far. Placed earlier at Newcastle and Wetherby, this is probably his easiest task to date and he's worth another chance.
