Verdict
Tresor De Bontee landed a bit of a gamble at Hereford at the start of November. He may well be capable of better, though is 12lb higher now. Franklino has ability but lacks a recent run and Starlife has been a big disappointment since coming over from France. Enchanting Smile looks to be heading in the right direction, however, though may not be as well handicapped as HARRIS GARDEN. Paul Webber's gelding likes to race prominently and, in this big field, that should be a positive. He'll also be suited by the sharp track. Witchesintune may be best of the rest.
