Verdict

Former Godolphin inmate Arabian Revolution had the highest rating of these on the Flat but went backwards after finishing second at Newbury in July. Norse Light did win a maiden over 1m4f at Bath in October and may prove the pick of the newcomers on this occasion but we'll go with the experience of RATHEALY. Jockey bookings would suggest the Warwick sixth is not the first choice of David Pipe but Classical Art turned in a shocker at Wetherby following a fair fourth here on debut and has plenty to prove now.
