Verdict
My Son Max beat similar rated types in a Wolverhampton seller last week and should be thereabouts again but STONEFIELD FLYER has the stronger form. The latter won a Kempton handicap on his latest start with Exceedexpectations over five lengths behind and can land this with a similar effort. Birdman has tumbled down the weights and is dropped in class along with Living Leader while Galway winner Expensive Taste has a shout at the weights on his first start for a new yard.
