Verdict

Bayston Hill finished second over a longer trip at Chelmsford with AGAINST THE ODDS (NAP) well behind. But the latter was having his first start since 2018 and posted a much better effort when narrowly beaten at Wolverhampton subsequently. He looks up to winning off his current mark on that form. Global Style has won just the once in 42 outings though went close at Brighton last week while Decoding disappointed having earlier placed at Carlisle.
