4/7

Has made a good start, filling the runner-up spot again at Chepstow (10f) last time, losing concentration having been asked to win his race a fair way out from the front, letting the winner in but beginning to come back at him again at the line. Longer trip will suit and has more to offer.

Forecasts

Vaguely Royal (4/7), Divya (10/3), Open Choice (15/2), Tajanis (8/1), Harittondreamboy (150/1)

There is more to come from VAGUELY ROYAL and he can get the job done over a longer trip this time. Divya looks the danger on the back of a pleasing return at Newmarket.
