Verdict

UNCLE DICK has won three times Brighton recently and looks worth another try over this longer trip. Lunanera is another upped in distance while Blue Yonder won here in May and Marmara Star scored over course and distance early in the year but hasn’t raced since April. Rose Light disappointed at Kempton still looking for a first win but Glory Nights finished closer at Newcastle last time.
