Verdict
Connections will be hoping Heaven Forfend improves for this extra distance having returned a losing favourite the last twice. Endured is fitted with headgear after disappointing at Windsor though Tasaamuh finished closer at York last time without troubling the winner and can figure. But VOTTORIA LIGHT (NAP) came up against the potentially smart Darain when runner-up over 1m2f at Newmarket last time and Charlie Appleby’s charge gets the vote to go one better. Nitro Express and Mahanakhon Power look best of the remainder.
