Verdict

Grand Sauncy got caught out by a steady pace at Kempton last time and sets a pretty good standard for the others to aim at there. He could face a couple of serious rivals in the form of the newcomers Melchior King and BRIGADE OF GUARDS. The first-named ran below expectations on a couple of starts in the spring but shouldn't be underestimated on return to action here. Preference is for the latter who shaped with promise in bumpers and could be another from the yard to improve for hurdling.
  1. Brigade of Guards
  2. Grand Sancy
  3. Melchior King
