Verdict

BROUGHTONS FLARE is usually thereabouts at this level and finished in front of both Chloellie and Jems Bond when runner-up over 7f at Southwell. This extra yardage is not a problem and he’s preferred to Amalfi Salsa. The latter moves in the opposite direction having finished a close-up sixth in a bunch finish over 1m2f at Lingfield but Recuerdame has failed to take advantage of a slide down the weights and Pedestal ran poorly here last time having won over track and trip before that.
