Verdict
Mighty Montefalco is progressing well and was a most decisive winner of a Stratford novice event last time but he faces a much stiffer task under top weight on his handicap bow and looks worth opposing at the likely prohibitive odds. Both Tory Boy and My Good Son remain in top form judged on yesterday's efforts but the exertion may have taken it's toll so the vote goes to Derring Bridge. The veteran scored in comfortable fashion in better grade last time and is still fairly treated compared to previous form so is the percentage call.
