Verdict

WHOSHOTWHO ran a cracking race returning from a lengthy absence at Warwick 10 days ago. The first two pulled a long way clear and Richard Newland’s charge can go one better if that run hasn’t emptied the tanks. Boy's On Tour is a course specialist still more than capable of figuring in a race like this while Roxboro Road is much respected after rattling up a hat-trick, though has been hit with a 14lb rise since last seen. Uptown Harry may be best of the rest ahead of front-running Niven.
