Verdict
Ned Curtis steered WAR CREATION to a comfortable victory over 2m3f at Haydock last time. Lightly-raced, he’ll be a short price to follow up here off a 5lb higher mark. Bumper winner Dessinateur looks sure to appreciate this step up in distance on his handicap debut and looks the danger ahead of Galactic Power and the frustrating Fresh New Dawn. Bonnet's Vino has never won off a mark this high but has place claims again and makes more appeal than the likes of Milord and Allez Jacques.
