Verdict
Honour A Promise hasn't shown much over longer trips so far and was easily brushed aside off this mark at Towcester last time. Born To Benefit has failed to build on her third at Southwell in January while Grand Article is best over fences and at Towcester. GOOD VALUE only found one too good when stepped up in trip last time at Warwick and a similar effort should see David Pipe's chestnut off the mark over timber at the fifth time of asking. Sweet Summer is preferred to plater Bus Named Desire of the remainder.
