In depth

Verdict

None of this bunch inspire confidence but BUSH WARRIOR has every chance on these terms and was third in a claimer over course and distance last month. Archie Stevens was placed in plating races on the all-weather earlier in the year and Major Crispies drops in class having not won since 2015. Majestic Myles looks up against it at the weights and Louis Vee has even more to find in this company.
