Verdict

BETTER DAYS represents a yard with a good healthy strike-rate at this fixture and looks to have been primed for a bold attempt at expanding on the record. The gelding has very few questions to answer regarding the trip and ground, and assuming he copes with the fair nature of Kempton's chase course, he looks the one to beat. Ramore Will is enjoying his racing just now and has to be feared as a progressive type that could spoil the party, while Flight Commander is on a handy mark and would be dangerous to underestimate.
