Verdict

FRENCH MINSTREL has been a real credit to connections in recent months by winning his last three starts. A further 3 lb rise might not be enough to stop the dual C&D winner. Thorn won over C&D himself last month and he has to be taken seriously again today. Alchemystique is one to note in the market on handicap debut after getting a mark very quickly.
