Verdict
SINGAPORE failed to complete in a spin over hurdles earlier in the month but has a shout on his earlier efforts at Windsor and may prove good enough. Roller made a decent start at Saint-Cloud back in May only to disappoint at Deauville and has joined Mick Easterby while Gloryette has cut little ice in handicaps and returns to maiden company. Samphire Coast showed a bit more at Southwell last time while the 200,000gns yearling, John Milton, makes his racecourse debut having been purchased for £9,000 earlier this year.
