Although this is his first run of the season ROYAL CONCORDE is worth chancing off the same mark as when a very promising third at Plumpton on handicap debut last March. Already a winner here this season, Lochinver rates the biggest threat and he ran similarly well at Huntingdon latest off today's 9lb higher mark. Handicap debutants Avoir De Soins and En Couer look the sorts to leave their ordinary novice form behind now handicapping.
