Verdict

All of these step up in trip with POLAR ICE likely to attract attention representing Sir Mark Prescott’s yard. The latter will be sharper for last month’s outing over 1m4f at Chepstow and is taken to reverse running with third-placed Where You At. Nibras Gold was still well beaten when placed at Ripon while Largo Bay has been thereabouts over 1m2f at Lingfield recently. Tinchoo is another likely stayer and is preferred of the rest.
