Verdict
Instant Replay, successful six times over fences, runs in his first seller but has finished last in his last two runs. Vanderbilt is a 56-race maiden and, like The Sumba Island, has a mountain to climb at the weights. Dis Donc has barely raised a gallop since joining Micky Hammond and Clearance is in danger of becoming disappointing, though he would be the pick of official ratings and Brian Hughes rides. Katie O’Farrell takes 5lb off WEEBILL, who returned with a cut when beaten in a claimer last time – he can get back on track in this.
