In depth

Verdict

Lord Redsgirth has lost his way and Bow School looks badly handicapped back over fences but Eyre Apparent has a chance if forgiven a dismal effort at Wetherby. Stablemate BLAZIN WHITE FACE is more interesting, however, with recent rain in his favour. He's won twice over course and distance and this looks to be his time of year. Gleann Na Ndochais is still a maiden over fences and gets little respite from the handicapper while Hawaii Klass is taking on better opposition than when second at Sedgefield and another still chasing a first victory over the larger obstacles.
