Verdict

TRUE DESTINY won over 1m3f before scoring again at Lingfield stepped up to 2m. Today’s shorter trip shouldn’t be a problem and he’s taken to defy a penalty. Your Band made a winning start in handicaps when stepped up to 1m4f and has plenty of scope while Houlton is getting closer and drops down a grade after placing at Kempton. Tin Fandango has improved for the step up to 2m but Kempton regular Arlecchino's Arc looks no nearer winning and Love To Breeze is preferred in this grade.
