Verdict

La Bacouetteuse has been in dreadful form and has questions to answer at the moment, while the handicapper appears to have caught up with Sebastian's Wish. The consistent Stoneham also needs to come down in the weights, so preference is for DOMINATING. He was running on strongly when finishing second in decent race at York, suggesting that this trip will suit, and there may well be more to come. Buyer Beware has shown nothing since switching from hurdles and Yes Daddy’s Flat form does not offer much encouragement.
