Verdict
GOUET DES BRUYERES arrives in good form having gone close at Ludlow. He’d won at Worcester earlier and the return to today’s shorter distance can see him back to winning ways. Izzy's Champion represents last year’s winning yard and is preferred to chasing debutant Jackhammer on last month’s third at Hexham while Fourth Of July won off a similar mark early in the year and could go well.
