Verdict
BANFF is fit from hurdling and was placed off higher marks on the Flat in Ireland last year. He should go close on only his second start for Olly Murphy’s in-form yard. Celtic Power wasn’t beaten far when fourth over 2m at Thirsk last time with Byronegetonefree not far behind while Highway Robber steps back up in trip after scoring over 1m3f at Hamilton. London Glory was well beaten on a previous attempt at 2m and has placed over 1m6f subsequently while La Bacouetteuse is back on a winning mark but badly out of form.
