Verdict

A switch to the Flat has rekindled Its'afreebee’s enthusiasm and he beat Hope Is High at Yarmouth before scoring at Lingfield, though a drop in distance and a further 4lb rise are causes for concern. Liquid Gold is back on his correct mark following his fourth at York. He holds Abel Tasman on that run and should go close to recording a first win of the campaign but BE PERFECT is a straightforward sort who is almost certain to run his race again. He could also get his own way out in front and looks the one to beat.
