Verdict

A race that lacks any real pace and there’s a danger that it could end up in a bit of a mess with no natural front/prominent runner in the field. Firmament is on a long losing run and is for the most part a hard horse to trust to get the job done. Both Polybius and Boy In The Bar could do with a pace to run at particularly the former whose best form is over 6f and not 7f in any case. TOUGH REMEDY did well to win last time when reeling in a progressive sort and he could well go on from that although he’s never backed up one of his three wins yet. Sanaadh now wears a tongue-tie for the first time and will enjoy this 7f trip; a market watch is advised.
