Verdict
It took recent course and distance winner Kingthistle 15 attempts to open his account and the less exposed maiden winners make more appeal. Right Rebel has every chance on his success over a mile at Newcastle in October but RAASHDY is a more recent winner having scored here last month and Peter Hiatt’s charge gets the nod. Roman De Brut failed to cope with a 4lb rise last time having beaten Mary Le Bow here previously but prolific course winner Idol Deputy could bounce back at any time off his current mark.
