Verdict
Silvestre De Sousa takes over on FOUR FIFTY THREE (NAP), who couldn't quite catch Dorian Grey at Lingfield but was battling on at the finish. He can gain compensation as Iconic Boy has yet to prove he stays this far and Master Grey returns after a very long absence and makes his handicap debut. Parisian hasn't shown much to date and also runs in a handicap for the first time while Say About It has only showed moderate form since arriving from France. Golden Guide looked in need of this sort of trip when staying on over a mile at Southwell and could provide the main threat.
