Verdict

Quite an interesting contest despite the small field with plenty of interest sure to be invested in Samson whose Worcester win on his first run for the Dr Richard Newland yard cam as no surprise, the yard having a 29% strike-rate with their stable switchers since 2015. Raised 10lb he’s going to be hard to stop but at the likely prices AS YOU LIKE is just preferred given his excellent run over C&D last time and his general form at this time of the year. Royal Magic needs to recover his poise over fences while Included may have a little more to offer as yet over fences but will need to finish off her race with more brio than at Ffos Las last time.
