Verdict
There is probably more to come from Pied Du Roi now he goes handicapping. Ashford Wood has the past form to figure but Bowie returns from a lengthy break and Seymour Star hasn't really shown enough so far to suggest he'll get involved. ROSA IMPERIALIS stopped to nothing last month at Exeter but that can't have been her true running as she'd beaten a decent sort comfortably at Fontwell on Boxing Day. Robert Walford's mare is taken to bounce back here as Goldie Horn has never won outside of selling company.
