Verdict

BALAJO has won six times in France at up to 1m5f, but didn't stay the 2m in a Shergar Cup race at Ascot on his first start for Alison Batchelor. He can return to winning ways here as Scamperdale can't be trusted to run up to his mark these days and August's Ffos Las winner Dr Livingstone arrives badly out of sorts. Foxhaven is in better form but has plenty to find at the weights with the selection.
