Verdict

SCHOOL FOR SCANDAL jumped well when a promising second at Hereford last time and, given he was 7 lb out of the weights that day, a 4 lb rise seems rather lenient, so he's fancied to go one better at a track that suits forceful tactics. Last year's winner Templier must be considered having made a respectable reappearance for his new stable and Miladygrace is also one to note.
