    Verdict

    Zamoyski is hard to fancy back on the level today but the remainder can all be given a chance. Highland Sky returned to winning ways over a similar trip at Newbury, though is upped a grade for this, while Starczewski won a maiden over a shorter distance here last time. Manton Warrior won over today’s trip at Chelmsford before struggling over 1m4f but Road To Paris failed to land the odds at Chepstow recently, though it’s too soon to write him off. TRAILBOSS has the most scope having made a winning start in handicaps with a cosy two-length success at Doncaster and there looks plenty more to come from Ed Vaughan’s charge over this extra distance.
