Verdict

If MODERN STYLE produces a performance akin to that of his facile handicap debut success at Exeter on Friday he will take the world of beating. Indeed, the 4-y-o won as he liked that day and will probably be raised around double the figure of the 7 lb penalty he carries here when reassessed. Lake Tiberias and No Mean Feat can fill the places.

  2. LAKE TIBERIAS (IRE)
  3. NO MEAN FEAT (IRE)
