Verdict

It's hard to oppose the in form NOBLE BEHEST in his bid for a fourth win on the trot. The six-year-old was travelling all over his rivals approaching the home straight at Southwell last time out and put the race to bed in fairly convincing fashion; he should be hard to beat with just a 5lb penalty to cope with. Nataleena is a consistent sort who runs well at this venue while Diodorus is becoming well-handicapped on old form.
