Verdict
Brighton winner Later Darling was well beaten at Goodwood last time while Fulfilled won over a shorter trip at Ripon before finishing fourth at Beverley. Premiere Ligne scored over today’s trip when trained in France last year but Thunder Max looks no nearer getting his head back in front. STAR FROM AFARHH won over course and distance earlier this month and there looks more to come over today’s distance raised only 2lb.
