Verdict

Irish import Model Behaviour may need a while to acclimatise to her new surroundings but new stablemate Verus Delicia has been in fine form and is chasing a hat-trick in this grade having already won twice here over 6f. Roy's Legacy won over this trip at Doncaster last month but that was on fast ground and he's struggled on this surface in the past so we'll give a tentative vote to UNCLE TIMMY. David Evans' horses are running well and this Multiplex gelding has improved markedly in his last two runs. He can reverse course running with Verus Delicia over this shorter distance and 6lb better terms.
