Verdict

Elshaameq won at Chelmsford last time but was beaten by LOOM LARGE over track and trip before that. The latter subsequently went close again dropped back to a mile here and gets another chance in his current form. Highwaygrey has slid down the weights this year and ran well at Redcar recently while Blue Yonder was narrowly beaten in an amateurs' race at Wolverhampton. Bustaam and Governor Of India make their handicap debuts while Le Rouge Chinois debuts for a new yard having won in Scandinavia.
