Verdict
None of the four runners are ruled out here. Cake de L'Isle should be capable of better and Potters Story’s third at Ffos Las was an improvement and he’s now visored. Petite Ganache found 2m5f too short at Carlisle but was then a little disappointing over this trip at Perth. FLY RORY FLY has gone up 2lb since his second at Perth and can be hard to predict but Nick Alexander’s charge still looks the percentage call.
