Verdict
Kolisi has risen 15lb in the weights since his winning run began and David Pipe’s four-year-old might be worth taking on here. SAMBEZI looks a viable alternative having led until two out in a better race last time at Huntingdon. Sami Bear is a regular here but has gone up 6lb for his win at the track last month over a bit further. Wells Glory may be the pick of the remainder.
