Verdict

Donald Will Do is a regular visitor to the track and won over 2m5f here in 2009. He had veteran Jacarado behind when third over that trip on his latest start but seems to struggle when asked to race over 3m. Randolph O'Brien has been well below par since returning from injury, but there are possibilities about Ballymorn who clearly didn't get home over a longer trip on heavy ground at Hereford last month. One More Dinar has gone close in similar company in the past and finished ahead of the well-backed Red Law over a shorter distance at Taunton earlier in the month but the return to a longer trip could see REELWILL back in the winner's circle. Successful over 2m6f at Fakenham in October, he has been getting outpaced over shorter since and has dropped to a decent mark as a result.
