      Verdict

      Astrophysics won over 6f at Wolverhampton last time. This drop back to the minimum trip may not be a problem but the soft going could be while it was good ground when David's Beauty scored at Chepstow recently. MONTALVAN has only won a maiden so far but has been beaten less than a length on his last couple of outings, including at Thirsk four days ago, which suggests Roger Fell’s charge may be up to winning off his current mark. He gets the nod with with Groundworker and Burmese Blazer both returning from lay-offs and the former 6lb higher than when scoring over track and trip in August.
