Verdict

It was heavy ground when Man Of Monaco won at Beverley and he has plenty to find with LORD MELBOURNE on collateral form. The latter was no match for the winner at Pontefract but further progress looks likely and he’s preferred of his yard’s two runners. Enrico Caruso and stablemate Daydream Express have improvement to find while Incremental has been gelded and switched yards since debuting in April with a fourth at Kempton. Inspiritus and Romilda are others to note.
