Verdict

Vamizi has raced here five times and has yet to finish out of the first three, reappearing with a second over C&D in October. He should be thereabouts again with Graham Watters taking off 10lb. My Boy Paddy will strip fitter for last month's C&D run while both Lockstown and Dont Tell Sailor would have a chance on their best form. But we'll stick with COOL OPERATOR, even though he's yet to really prove he stays this longer trip. He looked in good order when beating Rigadin De Beauchene over 2m4f at Uttoxeter last time.
