Verdict

Dual bumper winner OLIVERS TRAVELS ran well despite seeming unsuited by the drop in trip at Uttoxeter last time and Peter Bowen's gelding looks just the type to do better handicapping over this kind of trip. Irish raider Morricone is most progressive and appeals as particularly interesting taking a marked step up in trip, whilst Classic Concorde is also respected in search of the hat-trick.
