Verdict

Orchestrated returned from an absence to win by six lengths at Worcester and is only 5lb higher. Richard Patrick is a solid jockey booking and David Bridgwater’s gelding should be thereabouts again. Mr Satco is another to consider and Phangio is a thorough stayer who will just be finding top gear when others have cried enough. CHILL IN THE WOOD is less exposed than most over fences. He may well have got back to winning ways at Fontwell in June had he not been hampered and Alan Doyle takes off a handy 5lb. Bermeo makes most appeal of the remainder.
