Verdict

FREE BOUNTY arrives in the best form of these and went gone close over 1m6f here recently having won over track and trip before that. He can go in again back over 2m in this modest company. O'Connor's Girl needs to improve but may well do so upped in trip by Sir Mark Prescott and Purple Raven is another attempting 2m for the first time. Triassic has a bit to find with the selection on latest running but Next Train's Gone should be sharper for a recent return from a lay-off.
