Verdict

Geordan Murphy showed progressive form last year winning three times over a mile but is not certain to stay this longer trip. Four Nations drops back in distance after scoring over 1m6f here and Percella won a seller at Leicester last week over 1m2f. The veteran Noguchi has won three times over longer distances on the all-weather this year while the chase winner Henri De Boistron makes his debut on the Flat. CHANTECLER is a headstrong type and faded close home in a higher grade at Kempton last time. But he had won over track and trip before that and Hughie Morrison's charge gets another chance dropping back down in class.
