Verdict

BEAU HAZE has completed a course and distance double in the past few weeks and is only 1lb higher than his latest hard-fought success when he had Aliandy 10 lengths behind. Clondaw Promise has yet to win and his best run came on heavy going while Gavrocheka hasn't found the sort of form that saw him score at Market Rasen last July. Baron Nelson showed his first form at Warwick in April and was well supported at Fontwell next time but ran poorly. Clearly Capable has gone up 8lb for landing a lower-grade contest here a fortnight ago though had plenty in hand while last month's Kempton winner Faint Hope was engaged in the 4.00 at Uttoxter yesterday.
