Verdict

Upped in trip, BOOK OF LIFE bounced back to form when winning with a bit in hand at Wolverhampton on his latest outing, so with more still to offer at this distance he is taken to follow up. The main danger could be Bearaway, who has won 2 of 3 starts since joining his current yard, with Solanna also arriving in good form and completing the shortlist.
