Verdict

Judicial won this in 2020 but was well beaten in last year’s renewal along with Spycatcher. The latter beat Mount Athos when scoring over 7f at Thirsk in April while Tiber Flow represents last year’s winning yard having won three of four previous outings on the Tapeta. Witch Hunter went close at the All-Weather Championships here earlier and won a valuable handicap at 50/1 over 7f at Ascot last week but BRAD THE BRIEF is clear of these at the weights. The latter made a winning reappearance last season before landing a Group 2 sprint on a trip over to the Curragh and will prove hard to beat if repeating either of those efforts.
