Verdict

A big field goes to post for this closing bumper and there’s the usual mix of pedigrees and ability on show with eight of the field making their debuts. The Big Bite is the only previous winner in the field as he makes his debut for Tom George having scored under very different conditions on his debut; if his quirks can be kept in check he could defy his penalty here. Malachite probably sets the standard in form terms and comes from a yard (Nicky Henderson) in sparkling form although he looks a slow burner and PERSONAL COACH is given the nod granted that this may be a speed test. That may well suit this son of Motivator who showed ability on his debut at Taunton. There is bound to be something lurking amongst the newcomers with Six Gun Serenade and Commodore Barry being two well worth watching in the market.
  1. Personal Coach
