Verdict
Ballymilan’s two wins this year have come over fences while Sheila Nash couldn’t cope with a further 7lb rise when on a hat-trick at Worcester and has gone up again in the weights since. Loved Out was a winner here in June but has been beaten twice since at Newton Abbot and is only 1-22. Perth fourth Navegaon Gate is still a maiden but FARCEUR DE MAULNE got his head in front at Worcester in May when on an upward curve and this isn’t much better. Castkitello never seems to run two races alike and Inferno Sacree has disappointed the last twice, though is now visored.
