Verdict
Plenty with a chance but GOD OF THUNDER posted a much improved effort when upped to today’s trip at Lingfield for his handicap debut and there should be plenty more to come over the distance. Red Kite won over a mile at Brighton recently while Caesar's Palace finished second of four runners at the same fixture. At Liberty has been thereabouts this year without getting his head in front and Maffeo Barberini should stay this extra distance.
