Verdict
Broke Road won an incident-packed race at Worcester last time despite taking a few liberties at the obstacles and if again he manages to get round he looks the more likely winner. Moon Colony was a moderate second in a seller last time out and the fact that he has an obvious chance of being placed sums up this moderate contest. The ultra consistent Egypt also has place possibilities.
