    Verdict

    This may be more competitive than first appears. Mordred does look a bit exposed but the in-form Milton Harris also runs Seigneur Des As, who has placed over fences in France. Indigo Lake had a pipe-opener on the Flat last month and represents last year’s winning stable while Thunder Flash won four times on the Flat and will have had plenty of schooling but LUSAKA was possibly a bit unlucky over this trip at Fontwell last month and can go one better.
