Verdict

A weak event and one in which course winner MASTER BAKER should take some halting. He was unfortunate not to add to his win here last season over three-miles, but has a recent point-to-point success to suggest his wind surgery has had a positive effect. The free-going Bletchley Castle appears the most credible threat to his aspirations while Anolysse Moriniere heads the remainder on French form from way back when.
