Verdict
Further Outlook has hit a rich vein of form and ran well above expectations when facing a stiff task behind Monkston Point at Windsor having made all to land a claimer at the same venue a week previously. Manorbier has ben raised 2lb for a narrow Thirsk defeat (Cold Climate held) last time but is still well treated on the pick of his form and should go well from a good draw while Bandanna ended a longish losing sequence at Bath and has to be respected off a 5lb higher mark. Kilmeena Lad ended last season in good style but may need the outing while recent Goodwood scorer Kingscross has a poor draw to overcome.
