Verdict

Count Meribel sets a clear benchmark for the others to aim towards and looks fairly tough to beat dropping back into novice company after a solid handicap effort at Ffos Las in April. However, he's had similar chances previously and there is perhaps an ounce of value to be sought in looking elsewhere. Quietly is essentially a stayer and has done as well as could be expected over hurdles so far and should be involved, whilst hurdles debutant Absolute Power is respected for Rebecca Curtis. However, the tentative vote is for fellow hurdles newcomer APOLLO CREED. He has been brought along steadily in bumpers by Evan Williams, and looks tailor made for this longer trip now switched to hurdling.
