Verdict

Udaberri arrives on the back of placed efforts on the all-weather but AFTER EIGHT is expected to show further progress after landing the odds in a novices' event at Lingfield. This longer trip should suit and Andrew Balding’s colt gets the vote. Loudspeaker wasn’t beaten far when fourth at Beverley on his handicap bow and also steps up in distance along with recent Goodwood third Borntobealeader.
