Verdict

This handicap looks quite trappy, but we will side with REMEMBER RAMON to get the better of Right Stuff and River Ardeche. Jeremy Gask's 6-year-old is a progressive sort and he ran a blinder to beat Blockley at Wolverhampton last time. That form has been franked by Blockley who has since been out and won twice and with that in mind Remember Ramon looks to have solid claims. Right Stuff was doing his best work at the finish here last time when he chased home Phoenix Flight. He is open to further progress and we expect him to go well. River Ardeche was disappointing on his return from a break at Catterick last time, but this drop in trip should suit and he should be sharper for that recent run. War Of The Roses is a consistent sort and although he finished sixth last time in a race won by Sgt Schultz, he wasn't beaten far. Cold Turkey has been disappointing of late and looks best watched, and we will stick with Remember Ramon who can make it back-to-back wins.
