Verdict

Auld Sod has placed in his last three starts here but was easily brushed aside by the younger Salamanca School at the track in the autumn and Warren Greatrex’ charge has solid claims in this. Richidish bolted up in first-time blinkers at Fontwell but the headgear would need to work a second time for him to follow up off 10lb higher. En Coeur is usually thereabouts and it would be no surprise to see him get his head back in front on his favourite track but he does have something to find with LOUP DE MAULDE on recent running here and the latter has also been knocking on the door.
