Verdict
Ingleby Hollow was beaten 17 lengths when only third in this last year and he’s been in a bit of a rut lately. See The Sea won at Stratford last month, however, while Golden Town beat a subsequent winner at Perth in July. Blooriedotcom was improving at the start of the year, winning twice at Musselburgh, while Prefontaine has had a pipe-opener on the Flat. SWAFFHAM BULBECK (NAP) won very easily here last week and in a relatively quick time. Brian Ellison sent out last year’s winner and his charge looks more than capable of holding his own in this higher grade.
