Verdict
Exclusive Waters has been thereabouts over longer trips recently though has won over course and distance in the past. OROBAS struggled in better company at York last time but was beaten only a head in this lowly grade at Nottingham earlier and gets the nod on that form. Majestic Stone has yet to win but finished closer at Redcar last month while Polar Forest slips further down weights and the unexposed Ideal Angel steps up in trip.
