Verdict

There are some stout stayers in this including Rigadin De Beauchene and Cyclop. Gamain won at Wincanton when reverting to fences and TALK OF THE SOUTH (NAP) came good over a shorter trip here last month, beating Capard King six lengths. He was second in this last year when 12lb higher so looks to have obvious claims. Zerachiel was just beaten over a similar trip at Bangor and warrants respect, though Boyfromnowhere wasn’t far behind and will benefit here from James Bowen’s claim. The Boss's Dream is probably the pick of the remainder.
