Verdict

A moderate contest to start proceedings but a fairly competitive one nonetheless and the tentative vote goes to Ridicule ahead of Eastern Blue, Mizhar and Formeric. The John Portman-trained Ridicule was well placed to win twice last term and remains on a fair mark being just 2lb higher than on the second occasion. The son of Piccolo shaped as though returning to form when fourth at Leicester last time and is fully effective at this longer trip so should take plenty of beating. Eastern Blue comes here in excellent form after a comfortable success at Nottingham last week and looks a big danger despite a 7lb penalty. Mizhar lifted a Pontefract seller last month and confirmed his well being when placed in a competitive sprint handicap next time so has to be on the short list while Formeric ended last term in style and is fairly treated for his seasonal return but may just need the outing.
