Verdict

MARCH LAW finished runner-up to Ballydoyle’s Battleground in the Listed Chesham Stakes at Ascot last month and Mark Johnston’s colt looks to have a golden opportunity to open his account. Summa Peto showed ability when second over 6f here on his debut but will need a big step forward to match the selection and the latter comment also applies to Diamondonthehill.
