      In depth

      Verdict

      A half-brother to the useful Ennistown, HONOURABLE ACTION may be good enough on his racecourse debut and is preferred to stablemate Myth Cycle. Congaree Warrior looks up against it but the remainder have all shown a similar level of form so far. Illusive Force and Silent Thunder were placed at Lingfield last time while both Quill Art and Dutch Uncle made the the frame at this venue. The latter finished ahead of a subsequent winner when runner-up over track and trip and has decent claims on that form.
