Silence Reigns won well last time and is taken to follow-up here at the main expense of Red Brook Lad and Little Brown Bear. The selection won well at Warwick last time when beating Red Guard. He is stepped-up in trip here but that will not be a problem and with ground conditions to suit he should take plenty of beating. Red Brook Lad is another that won well last time out and he goes especially well for today's pilot. He is game and consistent and he will give our selection the most to do. Little Brown Bear is a fair sort who fell last time, and he is an out-and-out stayer who would probably be suited by a slightly longer trip.He would have place prospects along with Bush Hill Bandit, but for the winner we return to Silence Reigns.
