Verdict

Goblet Of Fire showed improvement for more patient tactics when runner-up off a mark of 88 in useful company over 10f at Doncaster last time and may be able to reverse previous form with Harnour who has twice finished ahead of the selection in handicaps at Newmarket. The latter ran encouragingly last time but may not be suited to this small field if it turns into a sprint while Hallawelfin Hala is bred to appreciate this trip and this looks more his level after being outclassed in better company but has a three-month absence to overcome.
