In depth
Verdict
FULL INTENTION got his head back in front at Chelmsford last time. He’s been raised 5lb but today’s opposition is a mostly frustrating bunch and he may be worth sticking with. Maysong has plenty to find with the selection while Grey Galleon was narrowly beaten over 6f here last time and Higher Kingdom won a novices' race over the same distance at Newcastle. True Belief scored over today’s trip at Yarmouth earlier while Enough Already, Tipperary Jack and Brunel Charm are usually thereabouts without winning.
