Verdict

Brigham Young is the least exposed but has not raced since going close in novice company at Lingfield last year. Endlessly also has scope for improvement on the back of a modest handicap debut at Sandown while The Jean Genie is preferred to Exeat dropping back down to today’s trip. MAORI BOB drops down in class for this having competed in better company since landing a double in this grade during the summer and Michael Bell’s charge may prove good enough once again.
