Verdict

Despite only beating one home in the end, BARIZAN (NAP) wasn't beaten far at Southwell 10 days ago. McCoy, on board that day, rides the hat-trick seeking In The Rough instead in this for his retainer but Donald McCain's gelding looks the one to beat. Jonjo O'Neill's charge is improving but only won by a neck here last time and is 7lb higher - he also tries a longer trip. Passato hasn't shown much since returning from a break and Darroun is woefully out of sorts.
