Verdict

A chance is taken that FIDUX will prove too well handicapped after a break, carrying 19 lb less here (including rider's claim) than when runner-up in a similar contest at the track in February. Whatsdastory made a sound return to action at Hereford last time and is also respected, with Light Flicker well worth another chance to build on encouraging show at Cheltenham.
