Verdict

Caro Des Flos hasn’t been disgraced the last twice but was behind Trumps Benefit at Market Rasen and the latter will be suited by stepping back up in trip. Orchestrated should strip fitter for a run at Warwick while Wilderness, run at that track last time was too bad to be true. DUBAI GUEST is one of the three previous course winners but the only one arriving in form. Dropped 2lb since his latest second here, he gets the nod.
