Verdict

Wahaab notched-up a sequence of placed efforts last month. Be Bold got his head back in front when scoring at Redcar recently though that was over 6f where he beat previous winner Gaelic Wizard. Custard The Dragon drops down in class and could figure while Broctune Papa Gio was ahead of You'll Do when fourth here last time. Rock Warbler also won over 6f last month but NAPOLEON SOLO was narrowly beaten at Musselburgh on his latest start and David Barron’s charge can finally break his duck in this.
