Verdict

LINE OF DESCENT was only 4 lengths behind Ben Buie despite making a race-altering blunder at Fakenham 2 weeks ago so is fancied to come out on top this time on 4 lb better terms. Letsbe Avenue got no further than the first at Taunton recently, but he'd made a winning debut for this yard there prior to that so must be respected.
