Verdict

A good event over 1m with some interesting and potentially progressive types in opposition with perhaps the best of those being MATTERHORN who very much gives the impression that he could be better than a handicapper. He looks an uncomplicated sort and more straightforward that Battered who created a positive impression on his return but does have his quirks. Tough Remedy is another on the up although he has to really prove himself on this surface and the riders won’t want to give front running Michele Strogoff too much rope with Breden another expected to be in the mix.
