Verdict
Chief Brody drops in trip after disappointing at Chepstow in April. Ezetiger hasn't raced since February but Tara Well won a mares' maiden between the flags in March, though whether she'll have the pace for this is anybody's guess. SAMSON is a half-brother to useful winning miler Pango and Hughie Morrison has a good strike-rate with horses in runs in bumpers. Nico de Boinville's mount can hold off another newcomer Ballyandrew, who may need more time.
