Verdict
Valentinka went close over a mile on the Polytrack here at the start of the year while El Picaro placed at Kempton last month. But it was soft going at Nottingham when DRAGON’S FIRE finished a close-up fourth and a chance is taken Alex Hales’ charge stays this extra furlong. Joe Proud and Berkshire Miele both placed on their respective debuts last year while Throne Power is a newcomer to note.
