Verdict
Possibly best to focus on the 3-y-os, with SPELL MASTER taken to find this easier than the Class 2 3-y-o only race he contested at the Doncaster St Leger meeting on his recent return from a break. Monsieur Bondy could easily have more to offer now switching to handicap company on the back of maiden/novice wins. It'll also be interesting to see what the betting makes of the returning Bold Impact.

VerdictResumed from 6 months off with a good third in handicap at Newbury (7f, good) in April. Not so good at Doncaster 5 months later but could strip fitter for the run and has a less exposed profile than most of these.

VerdictQuirky course winner. Started out for the O'Meara yard in good form but more recent efforts have been underwhelming, albeit he did meet trouble here last time. Has plenty of class for the grade but not one for maximum faith.- 5. Bold ImpactJ: Jack DaceT: Ralph BeckettF: 3221-

VerdictBlinkered first time, career best when easily winning 6-runner novice (evens) at Epsom (7f, soft) last September. Not seen since but potentially significant that top stable has persevered. No blinkers this time.
