Verdict
Arcadian Friend was odds-on to win at Chelmsford yesterday and would carry a penalty in this if successful. PONS AELIUS is only 3lb higher than when landing a Class 3 contest at Goodwood in June and Charlie Johnston’s colt should go close again in this lower grade. Both Fox Vision and Divya have placed over 1m4f and try their luck over this longer trip as does the handicap debutant Berkshire Sundance.
