In depth
Verdict
THE WARRIOR popped-up at a big price over 1m2f here last week. He completed a course and distance double off a higher mark at this time last year and can defy a penalty having rediscovered his form. Today’s opposition offer little in the way of inspiration though Rivas Rob Roy placed when last racing at this venue while Lothario finished a bit closer last time looking to end a long losing run. Corrida De Toros may prove best of the rest.
