Verdict

Dubh Des Champs reserves his best for Doncaster but this track is similar in nature. Soft going suits Espoir Moriviere, who made a winning reappearance at Ayr and is on a hat-trick. Briac, Tomorrow's Angel and Ever So Much are all worth a market check but Petite Ganache was disappointing last time. VIKING RUBY hasn’t done a lot wrong since scoring at Uttoxeter in July and Kevin Brogan’s claim means she is actually racing off a lower mark than when beaten a length-and-a-half last time at Plumpton.
