Verdict

For Good Measure finally got off the mark over fences at Warwick and may well improve further but he’s been racing on better ground in the main. Moving In Style remains unexposed and could be worth a market check while the mare Belle Empress shouldn’t be written off just yet. Holdbacktheriver won at Bangor at the start of the year but is not easy to predict. Dinos Benefit should strip fitter for his fourth at Hereford and has a decent record here. Perfect Candidate is preferred to fellow veteran Regal Flow and he had DELL’ ARCA behind when fourth at Chepstow but the latter tends to do best for Tom Scudamore, who is back on board today, so may well turn the tables. Orchardstown Cross could be anything but has been hit with a 12lb rise since competing a double at Newbury in March.
