Verdict

LADRONNE arrives here in the form of his life, supplementing October's Wetherby success in good style back up in trip at Catterick 3 weeks ago. He gets the nod to defy a 4 lb higher mark and complete the hat-trick, with Bretney, who also arrives in good, another to consider. Low-mileage Monbeg Genius is also worth a look with his Aintree reappearance run under his belt.
