Verdict
A smooth win at Southwell will have boosted the confidence of BANDITRY and Ian Williams' novice, a very useful Flat performer, can win again before the ground turns against him. This is no straightforward task, however, as Captain Felix and Excellent Team are also recent winners while Peruvien Bleu has been keeping decent company. Quids In had a run on the Flat earlier this month but King Alfonso has been chasing.
