Verdict

The consistent Flighty Fellow is the pick over Osteopathic Remedy, Robema and Quai Du Roi to name but a few. Flighty Fellow has reflected the form of the Tim Easterby yard over the past few weeks, and it was no surprise to see him score at Haydock a fortnight ago. That was on fast ground, but he does not mind tackling easier going, and the seven-year-old is still very well handicapped compared to two years ago. Osteopathic Remedy has finally been given a bit of respite by the handicapper, and based on his short-head defeat by the Godolphin inmate Gongidas at Thirsk, the Michael Dods-trained three-year-old may soon be ready to add to his sole victory which came over six-furlongs here last September. Robema is dropped in grade after two outings at Chester, and will not mind any easing of the ground, while Quai Du Roi returned to Ireland to score on the Laytown beach recently, but has more to do. So, for the winner we return to Flighty Fellow.
