Verdict
Imperial City has been getting closer, though a step up in distance may be required. Wentwell Yesterday was beaten under a length over 6f at Chelmsford earlier this month but Fire Brigade won over this trip at the same track on his latest start, though has to carry a penalty. KING OF NEPAL will need to settle better than at Yarmouth to stay this extra furlong but he doesn't look badly treated on his handicap debut and may have more scope than some of these. Life On Mars has been a beaten favourite the last twice and she may be one to be wary of now.
