Verdict

REGAL WARRIOR scored over a longer trip here a fortnight ago and is taken to follow up. He had First Friday back in fourth and the latter is closely matched with Balmont Flyer on earlier running at the track so the form looks solid enough. It's had to make a strong case for any of the remainder given Beart has shown his best at this track over the mile trip though Whispering Down has scope for improvement and Eljowzah is dropped in class.
