Verdict

ROARING LEGEND found one too good when favourite at Southwell though the winner has been given a handicap rating of 90 and that form looks strong enough to land this. Carbis Bay made a promising debut when second here and Swing To The Stars wasn’t beaten that far when fifth at Chelmsford. The 320,000gns gelding Yaanaas is retained jockey Jim Crowley’s only ride of the fixture while Flying Frontier and Military Tycoon are other newcomers to note.
