Verdict

A few of these have come up against the progressive Aurora Grey of late with MISS TIGER LILY coming out best of them She was narrowly beaten over course and distance before finishing ahead of both Saborido and Wordiness when third at Kempton and should go close again. Byron Flyer has been winning over hurdles and has only his third start under this code having won a maiden race here at this time last year. He’s rated much higher than Northern Meeting over timber while River Dart drops down a grade after a third over 2m at Newcastle and could go well.
