Verdict

Bahuta Acha is penalised for his victory in a course and distance nursery and didn't appear to handle the extra half-furlong on softer ground at Bath. Danny Tudhope chooses Loulin over the unraced Liamba and his mount got no sort of run at Beverley last time though this is a very different track. MACHREE was a 50/1 chance when running very well on her debut at Ripon then was unfortunate at York where she lost her position when jumping a path. She was only beaten just over two lengths and would have finished much closer. She's handed the vote though Serabrina was suited by soft ground in her two runs in France in the spring and will have needed her comeback on Polytrack at Kempton.
