Verdict

The recent rainfall could spell trouble for several of these but it won't be an issue for HELVETIAN, who looked on good terms with himself when scoring at Pontefract. He remains on a workable mark following a 4 lb rise and, while this is a tougher assignment, the likely strong gallop could see things teed up nicely for him. Han Solo Berger is back down to the mark off which he was successful at Yarmouth in June and is next on the list ahead of Dusky Prince and Lipsink.

  1. HELVETIAN
  2. HAN SOLO BERGER (IRE)
  3. DUSKY PRINCE (IRE)
