In depth
Verdict
French Horn is taken to land back to back victories at the expense of Repeat and Love's Design. The Michael Wigham trained gelding landed his first victory for three years when beating Wilom in a class G seller at Lingfield last week and today's opposition appears to be of a similar quality. Repeat never got into the argument here on Monday in the race won by Lord Chamberlain, but is better judged on his easy defeat of Lucayan Monarch at the same track at the start of this month. Love's Design has gone off the boil recently but if rediscovering his form of last March, which included a victory in a Wolverhampton seller, he should be in the shake up. Nite Owl Fizz is closely matched with Repeat on running here in November and could also take a hand in the finish. However, French Horn could be slightly above this class and should land the spoils.
