Verdict

A typically competitive renewal of this valuable season finale and MILLER SPIRIT is taken to continue his ascent by completing the four-timer. He appeared to have a bit left up his sleeve when getting the better of the re-opposing (and much-respected) Flash Bardot at Newbury and a 7 lb rise looks manageable. Unexposed 3-y-o Valvano is feared most on the back of an encouraging handicap bow third at York, while the aforementioned Flash Bardot, Master Builder and Stressfree are others to consider.

  1. MILLER SPIRIT (IRE)
  2. VALVANO (IRE)
  3. FLASH BARDOT
