Verdict

Forever Field has done well over the summer, winning at Market Rasen and Worcester. He'll be having a holiday once the ground turns but may be capable of another success before then having only been raised 2lb since an excellent third at Chepstow. However, PARISH BUSINESS (NAP) came right back to form at Fontwell and remains well treated. Emma Lavelle's charge gets the nod, though Nexius may be running into form and L'aigle Royal certainly wasn't winning out of turn at Market Rasen. Duke Street will strip fitter for his run at Aintree but Younevercall looks high enough in the weights and Floresco also returns from a break.
