Verdict

Nick Alexander is mob-handed in this and a tentative vote goes to one of his quartet. TRAVAIL D’ORFEVRE has been staying on over 2m in novice company and is bred to appreciate this sort of trip. Bullion Boss is only 1-24 but should run his race again but Newcastle third Goodtimes Badtimes steps up a grade. Tartan Cookie came good at Newcastle and may have more to offer but has been raised the almost-obligatory 6lb. Soivegotachance may be the pick of the remainder.
