Verdict

The potential list of winners is a very short one indeed, with the vast majority of these horses making no appeal whatsoever. Mick Easterby isn't the type of character to look a gift horse in the mouth, and his CHAUCER'S TALE has the feel of a fast improving three-year-old in his own grade. He races without a penalty following a victory at Newcastle last week, and whilst he has stamina to prove, he must surely be expected to stay, as he'd be an almost certain winner in waiting over 7f to 1m. Huddersfilly Town looks the most realistic danger, now that she is finally beginning to fulfil her trainers previously high expectations of her.
