Verdict

A competitive handicap with the tentative vote going to UNCLE BERT. He stuck to his task behind a progressive one at Chepstow on his most recent outing and a capable 7-lb conditional now takes over in the saddle. War Soldier and The Four Sixes are closely matched on their running over C&D last time and they head the dangers.

  1. UNCLE BERT
  2. WAR SOLDIER (IRE)
  3. THE FOUR SIXES (IRE)
