Verdict

If Bubbly Bellini turns up after a win on Sunday then he must be feared despite the longer trip, however LORD VICTOR is proven and he gets the vote. Alan McCabe's colt comes here on the back of two good runs at the track, including a win over this course and distance on the 15th December. The return to this distance will suit and a bold bid is expected from a good draw. Moonlight Serenade has shown more promise in two runs since a summer break, Thatlittlecolt needs to improve markedly for the longer trip, cheek-pieces, and drop in grade, whilst Angie's Nap is at home on the surface but has never raced past six furlongs before. Miss Taken has five lengths to find with the selection on their clash here earlier in the month, and it is unlikely that a 3lb pull in the weights will be enough. This looks a good chance for Lord Victor to get back to winning ways.
