In depth

Verdict

A winner here in May, Tiger Orchid didn’t find much off the bridle when only fourth on a return visit and will again carry a penalty. FIRST STREET can improve past him having found only one too good on his debut at Huntingdon. Maxcel has hinted at ability and Time To Believe and Parsons Stone are newcomers to note with the latter being a half-brother to the useful Tetlami, who won a Listed bumper.
