Verdict

Prince Of Bel Lir failed on his hat-trick bid at Doncaster but isn’t badly treated here dropped a pound since. As If By Chance has also won twice so far this year but is now on a career-high mark. APHELIOS (NAP) gets a 7lb weight-for-age allowance and his rider claims a further 5lb so the Windsor winner can complete a double as it was reported that Miss Calculation didn’t handle this track last month.
