Verdict
BERGERAC won at Newcastle last time having earlier gone close in this higher grade at the same track when ahead of Lord Riddiford. Strong Johnson also has something to find with the selection, though beat both Castan and Khabib when successful at Newcastle, while Blind Beggar arrives on the back of a win at Chelmsford with Crimson Sand back in third. Hiya Maite scored here at this time last year and is not out of this either.
