Verdict

Mark Coumbe reduces part of the 7lb rise CROQUEMBOUCHE received for winning at Windsor last month. Combined with today's drop in class, Ed De Giles' charge should be good enough to follow up. Derwent won over a mile back in May and tries a longer trip after a couple of subsequent failures while Xinbama has struggled off a higher mark since landing a double at Epsom in July. The remainder are harder to fancy with The Cayterers well beaten at Doncaster on Friday.
