Verdict

AUTUMN FESTIVAL is on the upgrade, and with his form last time proving strong, he makes most appeal. Emeralds Pride beat a next-time-out winner when successful at Thirsk on last month's return and has obvious claims if reproducing that back in handicap company, while Above It All ought to remain competitive back on turf.
