        Verdict

        Druot requires a market check as a lightly-raced four-year-old for Hughes and Kelly but BALLYFARSOON is a more logical choice. Currently in good form, he followed up a game Hamilton win with a runner-up effort over this course and distance when the winner Blue Top, was arguably allowed too much rope by opponents. The selection had the rest of the field nicely accounted for though and can make amends off his unchanged mark. Bernisdale, the only course and distance winner in the line-up, rates a threat on the back of an improved Chepstow effort when gamely repelling all challengers under Daniel Muscott who takes the ride once again. The sole three-year-old in the line-up, Harry's Endeavour, looks the main danger though after useful efforts the last twice and should give Thomas Brown another good ride after his big weekend success on Educate at York.
