Verdict
Le King Beau bids for a hat-trick and looks sure to run his race once again. He makes more appeal than Faraway, who only landed a poor claimer at Wolverhampton on his penultimate start. Rock Canyon has every chance at the weights but will need a big improvement on his recent form to figure so ONE MORE ROMAN gets the nod. Stan Moore's charge ran out a ready winner of a seller at Lingfield last time with today's opponent The Dancing Lord a length behind and can go in again with further progress likely.
