Verdict

ENRILO couldn't cope with the step up to Grade 1 level at Kempton last time but his cosy defeat of the useful Darlac at Exeter prior to that was encouraging and he can get back on the up now tried in a handicap. Nicky Henderson's Mill Green appeals as the sort to make a chaser and could go well, while Hold The Note is back on a good mark if a recent wind op has a positive effect.
