Verdict

Recent course winner Ascot De Bruyere looks set to make another bold bid from the front, but much like Marlee Massie (who should stay), has to prove his stamina over this longer trip. FINAGHY AYR has no problems in that department, and despite a mid March fall over a marathon trip at Hexham remains a most progressive staying handicap chaser. He holds Sevenballs of Fire on form and looks set to take all of the beating, with fencing debutant Broad Spectrum the unexposed horse to keep an eye on for future engagements.
