In depth
Verdict
A tough race to call here for punters with very little between many of the leading lights but the principals look to be Exterior, Sew'n'so Character and Roehampton and we will take a chance on Exterior. The selection was a fair fourth behind Gold History last time doing all his best work at the finish. This more Galloping track is sure to suit and off the same mark here he will be hard to beat. Sew'n'so Character rates the main danger he was a fair second behind Straw Bear last time out but that was over a longer trip on heavy ground and for that reason he is passed over on this occasion. Roehampton is another worthy of respect on his best form but he ran as if in the handicappers grip when well behind Fort and for that reason he is opposed. Etmaam was a fair sixth at York behind In to The Dark last time and is another with place claims but his best form is on fast ground and he would not want any more rain. Of the remainder Have Faith is one of the least exposed in the field and is open to improvement over this longer trip so he is worth a noting in the market but for the winner we return to Exterior.
