Verdict

Braavos goes well fresh so his absence since December is not a worry and he’s one for the short-list. But BUCKLE STREET (NAP) appeared to appreciate the big step up in trip when just beaten, along with Luccombe Down, in a driving finish at Worcester earlier this month and can go one better. Still Believing often pops up when least expected and Kilfinichen Bay is also capable on his day. Miss Serious is preferred to the generally-disappointing Horace Hazel of the others.
