In depth
Verdict
Barrelbio face his easiest task for a while and must go close, even under top weight. A course and distance winner, he is gradually coming down in the handicap and can race here off a six pound lower mark, than when last successful. Little Flora will ensure there is no hanging around, but she could well be a touch to high in the weights. The consistent Bodafri Signet could be the one to beat. He will find this faster surface more to his liking and will appreciate the step up in trip.
