Verdict

Related to several useful performers on the Flat, the German-bred SUSPECT is one to keep on the right side of and the newcomer could take advantage of the weight he receives from previous winners Accordingtojodie and Batonnier. The latter pair are both returning from a break and need to step up on respective wins at Galway and Fontwell to defy penalties here. El Padrino shaped with promise on his debut at Sandown, while Go On Arch was far from disgraced against more experienced rivals in a Listed race at Cheltenham and will know more today. Airdrie and African Broadway have both been placed between the flags but may lack the pace to get competitive in this.
