Verdict

EMINENT POET relishes a stamina test in these conditions and the handicapper has given him a real chance of landing back-to-back races after only putting him up 3lb for his latest impressive success at Haydock. Flemcara is a horse clearly going the right way and may be capable of making his presnece felt despite a hike from the handicapper. Court Frontier will benefit from James Bowen's 5lb claim and can't be ruled out back on softer ground.
  1. Eminent Poet
