Verdict

This looks better than an average class four race around here and there are a couple of unexposed types to check in the market. Normandie Attack and Maghfoor should be monitored for positive signals as they step up in trip and have scope to improve on their latest efforts. Dominating is developing into a progressive stayer and could easily produce the career best required to take this. Clowance One and King Calypso are others to consider, but HIGH COMMAND has plenty to offer. His Newcastle third to a well-handicapped rival on Northumberland Plate day represents the pick of the form. The Varian/De Sosua partnership have an impressive strike rate in 2017 and they are taken to add another success to their haul.
