Verdict

Freak Out had slipped back down to a winning mark and scored here last month. But BARENBOIM was having his first outing after wind surgery when winning with plenty in hand over track and trip last week and may well defy a penalty given the ease of that success. The Menstone Gem landed an amateurs race at Newmarket in September and is 8lb higher while Tilsitt finished in front of Arch Moon when runner-up at Ayr and is not out of this.
