Verdict

ROYAL CELEBRATION ran well enough for fourth in a tougher race over course and distance a week ago. Bryan Smart’s charge was third here before that when finishing ahead of both King Of Castilla and Snuggy. The latter has subsequently placed at Kempton and had earlier beaten Local Artist at Leicester when winning a maiden while Affordability continues to tumble down the weights without getting any closer. The rest are harder to fancy on what little they have shown so far.
