Verdict

Cut The Corner, Forever Field and Belmount were all well beaten in this corresponding race 12 months ago, however this may be a less competitive renewal. Roman Flight is well-handicapped if the market suggests a return to his best seems likely, but it may pay to side with BEAU DU BRIZAIS on this occasion. His second to Play The Ace at Stratford is strong form and he had the subsequent Scottish National winner behind when second at Taunton on his next start. His stable are in good form currently and his latest run should have put him right for this.
  1. Beau Du Brizais
  2. Belmount
  3. Forever Field
