Verdict
Late Night Lily was well backed at Cheltenham but never looked likely to take a hand in the finish. She is well treated but there are questions to answer now but Back On The Lash can be forgiven his run at Cheltenham. Marmont’s best form is on softer ground but THE SWEENEY, second over track and trip two runs ago, will be hard to keep out of the frame again. He gets no help from the handicapper but travels well in his races and is a bit more consistent than some of these. William H Bonney is a danger eased in grade and Black Kalanisi also has claims along with Ballycrystal Court.
