Verdict

Indian Creak is burdened with a big weight dropping down in class after winning at Windsor with Sterling Knight behind. But the progressive PRINCE OF BEL LIR (NAP) can effectively race off a lower mark than when scoring at Nottingham if Harry Burns’ claim is taken into account and gets the vote to go in again. Concierge placed at Newmarket recently and is preferred to Toussarok on that form.
