Verdict

Astrum won over 1m3f at Warwick in May but has been raised a further 3lb since finishing second over 1m2f at Haydock. World Map carries a penalty for winning at Bath last week but it would be no surprise if there weren't more to come and Danehill Flyer may do better dropped in trip again, though has a bit to find with Halfwaytocootehill on the form book. SPATS COLOMBO only dead-heated at Carlisle two weeks ago but the horse he shared first place with, Chant, won again at Doncaster on Saturday and Micky Hammond's charge can follow suit.
