Verdict

The veteran Master Sunrise arrives in decent form but both LAWTOP LEGEND and Capricia were keeping on in a race over 3m at Uttoxeter won by Go On Chez. This longer trip will benefit the pair with Richard Newland’s more-experienced runner just preferred. Monty Massini and Push Ahead are both held on that form but Auld Sod and He Is A Cracker could play a part.
