Verdict

A golden opportunity for THE GAME IS A FOOT to notch a quickfire hat-trick in the very capable hands of James Bowen. This horse has effectively been raised a combined total of 8lb for two successes (by 9L and 5L), and in truth that appears to be very fair. He is versatile in terms of trip, and although probably strongest at Plumpton, he's clearly happy here as well. Western Sunrise looks an obvious contender for the places over a much more suitable trip, whilst the unexposed Delface should have something positive to contribute.
