Verdict

Excel Power posted his best effort since winning back in May when runner-up at Chelmsford recently while What's The Story has a shout on an earlier second at Ayr. Billyb and the returning Aerion Power have something to prove off their current marks but UNITED FRONT (NAP) looks more favourably treated returning to the all-weather. He was placed off higher marks in this grade back in March and Mick Appleby’s charge should make a bold bid if running up to the same level today.
