Verdict

Another competitive event in prospect and SHRUBLAND is not one to give up on just yet, despite his 4L defeat from just 1lb higher last time. Conditions are ideal and he stays further, so his new-found confidence may help him get his nose back in front. Watcombe Heights and Pointed And Sharp should both be capable of making an impact, while Cleni Wells, English Pale and Global Thrill are others considered.
