Verdict

A good 3-y-o handicap. LAKE COMO shaped well behind 2000 Guineas contender King's Trail in a Kempton conditions race last time and could be well treated back in a handicap. Unbeaten pair Fort Rock and Zennor Storm should have more to offer now moving into their first handicaps, while St Anton showed he can be very competitive from his mark when third at the Craven meeting.
