Verdict

A disappointing turn out for the decent prize money on offer and Lundy's Lane is a confident selection to follow up a maiden victory over a mile here last month. Clive Brittain's charge justified favouritism in the style of a useful performer when quickening clear of the useful Requite who boosted the form with an easy success here on Saturday. Lundy's Lane should have no difficulty in staying this longer trip and the well regarded son of Darshaan can win this before being tried in better company. Alchemystic was given a fine tactical ride to dictate a slowly-run maiden over course and distance two weeks ago and similar tactics can be expected once again in this small field. However, Amanda Perrett's charge faces sterner opposition on this occasion while recent claiming winner Makulu is more exposed than his rivals and is likely to be outclassed on these terms.
