Verdict
Theatre Legend is 5lb lower than when landing this 12 months ago. The going will be quicker today but he holds Minella Plus on their run together here three weeks ago. VOIX DU REVE (NAP) has run some sound races in defeat since the turn of the year. He has a touch of class and a 3lb drop in the ratings is a bonus. Saint Arvans is back on a winning mark, however, so can’t be ignored.
