Verdict

A winner at Wolverhampton earlier this month, Written Broadcast is in the form of his life and is sure to go close again despite a further 3lb rise. But he won’t find it easy giving weight to INEXPLICABLE, who was much more like his old self at Wolverhampton last week. How Bizarre and Crazy Spin would both hold solid place claims but Arlo's Sunshine is best watched after a lay-off.
