Verdict
MULTELLIE made all at Pontefract and similar tactics will no doubt be employed here from an advantageous draw. He does have a penalty but this track is even more conducive to front-running so Tim Easterby’s gelding may take some pegging back again. Dragon Mountain may be treading water off his current mark but fellow three-year-old Jeremiah can be forgiven his run in the Queen’s Vase having been placed in a couple of handicaps over 1m6f before that. Je Suis Charlie and Arrowtown are both returning from a break but the latter might be a better bet than frustrating stablemate Swansway at the likely odds.
