Verdict
Migration was sent off favourite at Salisbury on his first start since 2019 and finished a close-up fourth. He should be in the mix again but EPIC ENDEAVOUR (NAP) was beaten only a length in a more competitive contest at Windsor recently and is taken to go one better in this. Legendary Day faces a tougher task raised a further 6lb as he bids for a hat-trick while Path Of Thunder looks stuck on his current mark judged on recent placed efforts. Power of Darkness and Global Spirit have more to find while Tenbury Wells is fitted with a tongue-tie and drops down in distance.
