Verdict

Fergal O'Brien's GETTHEPOT didn't enjoy the rub of the green on his first go over 3m when seventh at Wetherby and is well worth another chance over the trip, especially as he can now race off a 2 lb lower mark. Colonel Manderson rates the obvious threat on the back of his clear Taunton second with in-form maiden On Springs not ruled out either in an open handicap.
