Verdict

Most if not all of this field have work to do off their marks and it's quite a tricky puzzle to sort out with course specialist Boruma having to show more improvement to win off this mark after falling last time out. Matorico is stepped up a little in trip here but he'll need to show that he can improve for it and Tawseef despite coming from a stable in form has to cope with being a long way out of the handicap. Court King would have a good chance if he continues his improvement back over hurdles again while Nautical Nitwit may provide some value in the market if he's come on for his last run around here. KNIGHT OF NOIR always threatened to be a good horse and he's now showing that and despite his defeat last time over fences and a stiff looking mark he may be able to show his touch of class here.
