Verdict

There’s little between this moderate bunch on official ratings but AUROPHOBIA finished in front of Profitar Rules when posting a better effort at Chelmsford and may prove the one to side with. Drum Brae Boy has failed to build on earlier placed efforts at Kempton while both Dafyre and Alicefromumbridge step up in distance, though the former’s yard is in good form.
