Verdict

The Tizzard's entry Cherokee Run is unexposed while Fashion House is fairly useful but surely there can only be one winner here and that is the bang-in-form Red Brook Lad. Hailing from the Dorset stable of Charlie Fox, the eight-year-old had been in prolific form between the flags, with five wins in six starts in opens, before before chasing home Sol Music at Exeter. That was followed by an impressive victory at Cheltenham nine days ago when he was produced at the top of the hill by Nick Mitchell before sailing past his rivals to score. He did tend to idle a bit in front but the longer trip here will suit him, and he is confidently expected to round his season off with another win before going out to grass for the summer.
