Verdict

Quantity rather than quality here. Robert Hawker takes a useful 7lb off BADBAD LEROY BROWN which will help with his big weight and now he's got the winning habit may well be able to follow up, as this longer trip promises to eke out a bit more improvement in him. Better was expected from North Hill in the week and although it's hard to pin down where he would have finished, a placing looked on the cards, which gives him every chance here. Le Braye will be a huge danger if getting the trip too, but this is a big step up in trip. Autum Rain and Change Or Go both need a check in the market, as money for either would make them interesting in such a weak event.
  1. Badbad Leroy Brown
  2. North Hill
