In depth
Verdict
Oulton Broad is relatively unexposed over this trip and is taken to follow up his recent Huntingdon victory at the main expense of Fortunate Dave and Sir Rowland Hill. The last mentioned showed his first worthwhile form for some time at Worcester recently and would have claims if able to build on that effort, while Burren Moonshine has slipped to a fair mark but has given little cause for optimism recently. The Masareti Kid has disappointed in his last two starts, while Welsh Dream has an inexperienced rider on board and may be best watched. Ideal du Bois Beury tends to find at least one too good and may do so again so a bigger threat may come from the reappearing Fortunate Dave. who has been waiting for the faster ground. Oulton Broad is fit and in form though and he is taken to win again.
