Verdict
Le Breuil is enjoying an Indian summer but this is tougher that recent assignments. Foxboro came from nowhere to score at Fontwell and has nothing to fear from Champagne Court on that run. Tallow For Coal appears to hold Pemberley on Lingfield form but Certainly Red was brought down in that race and bolted up next time at Wincanton and also won on his final start last season, though was only fourth behind Killer Kane earlier at Sandown when Valsheda was runner-up. Moroder was in terrific form in the spring and Undersupervision is not short of stamina but LASKALIN wasn’t winning out of turn in this country at Ludlow a month ago and a 5lb rise seems fair.
