Verdict

A race where a set of progressive horses will meet hardened handicappers, preference is for EMBOUR. The versatile four-year-old looks to have scope to land a big handicap sooner rather than later and the stiff 5f could be his optimum given his form between the minimum distance and 6f. His running style means he unlikely to encounter trouble too. Tis Marvellous' second in the Wokingham is a stand out bit of form and he seems to thrive on this ground at the Berkshire venue, while the admirable Line Of Reason could still have a big run left in him for an expert sprint trainer ahead of Moyassar, who could be a horse to watch for the future.
