Verdict

This is a very tricky start for punters and a narrow vote is given to Brown Fox, Shankly Bond and Tarkesar are two worthy opponents. The selection returned from a four month break to run a solid race at Exeter a fortnight ago. He has excellent form over course and distance including a close second in this event twelve months ago. He should improve for his recent outing and looks the best option. Shankly Bond also ran well here last time out when chasing home Tytheknot and this lightly raced five-year-old is also open to improvement. Tarkesar has been running consistently well and Lord Mayor was a class act on the flat a few years back, both could go well in this company. So all in all a wide open affair and Brown Fox is just a token selection.
