Verdict

LETSBEFRANK is making up for lost time as a 4-y-o, looking a handicapper to keep on the right side of when supplementing his Hamilton win at Thirsk last month. This further step up in trip shouldn't be a problem so the hat-trick may well be on the cards. Duke of Verona may have a bigger performance in him for his new yard, with Tailorman completing the shortlist.
