Verdict

Highlight Reel is a regular here and won over track and trip in June. He’s only a pound higher and Carey Street also goes on the shortlist having placed at Redcar and Musselburgh this summer. Broken Rifle is 0-8 on Turf and is still adjusting to new surroundings but there were more promising signs here last time and he’s dropped another 2lb since. BUFORD won over this trip at Doncaster before placing over further at Carlisle. He is having only a third start on Turf and should have more to offer.
