Verdict

Frontispiece won at Newbury at his first attempt over 1m4f and there should be more to come from him over the trip. But THE PINTO KID (NAP) has now won all three outings at this venue, having scored over 1m3f here last time, and James Fanshawe’s charge looks worth sticking with. Garbanzo landed a hat-trick last year and has re-joined Ed Walker after struggling over hurdles while Running Cloud went close off today’s mark the last time he raced over course and distance back in March. Hareeq gets a change of headgear but Noble Gift’s long losing run continues.
