Verdict

Jamie Osborne's runner had every chance in the previous race and the yard’s FREE SOLO bids for a hat-trick of course wins. He’ll likely be raised by more than today’s 5lb penalty in the future and is preferred to Broxi. The latter had the measure of Mighty Gurkha when going close here a week ago while both Poetic Force and Meng Tian return to this shorter trip with a chance and the latter is back on a winning mark.
