Verdict

Aquadabra won three times in the summer of 2019 and has been consistent recently though beaten three times from this mark. Eleven-times winner Archimedes is on a very long losing run and rarely runs away from Southwell these days while Fairy Fast was beaten in a seller at Lingfield last time. OH SO NICE is 0-13 but looked like winning at Chepstow until running out of steam close home. Tom Marquand replaces an apprentice and Tony Carroll's mare can get off the mark. The stable also run Shani, whose only success came in a seller two years ago. Andre Amar was having his first start on Turf since 2019 when a close fourth at Brighton and won't need much more to get involved.
