Verdict

Celma Des Bois returned from a lay-off to win over a similar trip at Leicester and Getmegold came good at Exeter last month, though third Eros is much better off at the weights today. Do It For Thy Sen completed a double at Southwell last May but hasn’t run up to that form so far this season. The mare Juniper is bred for chasing and she had excuses when pulled up on heavy going at Warwick on her reappearance but the vote goes to SUPERVISOR, who is almost certain to improve on his third at Uttoxeter in December.
