Verdict

The winning run of The Tall Guy was brought to an end by Dealer's Choice over this trip at Ludlow last time and he may have to settle for a minor role behind Mark Equal, who gets the verdict over Pillar Of Fire. The last mentioned unseated his rider early on at Ludlow last time but has claims on earlier form. Freteval has shown improved form on his last two starts and, along with Henrietta Knight's Royal China, has to be respected but the vote goes to Mark Equal. Martin Pipe's gelding was an easy winner at Chepstow on Wednesday and is taken to defy his 7lb penalty.
