Verdict

Contingency Fee has run over this trip and further on the all-weather but has never won beyond 1m4f. Embolden is facing a stiff task at the weights and Caldwell has never won on Turf apart from over hurdles. Bague D'Or tries a new trip but is a previous course winner while we are loathe to desert the in-form Reverend Hubert, who has won over 1m4f even though recent victories have come over 2m. SAINT RIQUIER had every chance when favourite at Chester last week and is 2lb higher now but will appreciate the extra 2f so gets the nod.
