Verdict

POLISH ran a very solid race on return from a sizeable absence and he’s a big player here if this assignment hasn’t come too soon. Go Chique has evidently had training issues but she remains very lightly raced for a mare of her age and could potentially be open to improvement. Gentleman Valley arrives on a hat-trick with victories at Market Rasen and Warwick under his belt. Irish Prophecy has refused on his last two tries over fences and Emma Lavelle’s gelding heads back over hurdles off a mark he’s won off in the very distant past.
