Verdict
Monarchofthegrange has gone close on a couple of occasions but BARRICHELLO has a slightly higher rating and is more likely to reproduce his best form. He will never get a better chance to end a frustrating sequence as he finished ahead of both Fete Champetre and Not What It Seems over course and distance last month. My Boy Lewis won twice on the Flat but stamina may be an issue on his debut under NH Rules.
