In depth

Verdict

Bois De Boulogne was beaten almost 10l into second last week but was attempting to concede the winner 9lb so it was a fair effort. Trinity Force and Direct Message also ran here a week ago but the former was well beaten and the latter has never run over this trip. Trinity Force and GRAND ARGENTIER met here a year ago when the former, who was receiving 2lb, came out on top. The latter’s yard has made much the brighter start to the campaign and can turn the tables though stable have two other runners. Tried And True may just get the better of Storm Belt though neither should trouble the selection on these terms.
