Judge Earle didn’t stay 3m last time but was pulled up on his previous start on Sedgefield and has become disappointing. Stay In Touch has the form to figure but is thoroughly exposed and Westbank makes her debut under Rules having failed to complete in four of her five starts between the flags. My Brother won a maiden on the Flat in Ireland but that was two years ago and he’s having his first run for a new yard. OUTBACK BLUE was only modest on the level but he’s been showing gradual improvement over hurdles and would have finished closer at Uttoxeter three weeks ago had he not given the others a start.
