Verdict

WORKBENCH represents an in form stable (7/27) and he can go one better than when finishing second last time out. The selection has the trip and ground in his favour and can get take this at the chief expense of last months C&D winner Rear Admiral. Return Flight, third here last time can fill the same position in this event.
  1. Workbench

  3. Return Flight
