Verdict
Vorashann won a Class 2 handicap for Gary Moore at Fontwell around this time last year but has switched stables since last seen on Boxing Day. The Moore stable run Systemic in this and he is fit from the Flat but so is IDILICO. Placed twice on the level this year, the latter may be a better option dropping in grade. Peaceful Sunday and Absolute Ruler have already been beaten in sellers this year but this won’t take much winning.
