Verdict

CHIEF OF WAR (3) stuck on well when resuming last start to finish second over 7f at this track after showing good early speed. Looks the runner in this field with the most upside. Likely improver with definite winning claims. HOLD THIS (12) was in the firing line on the turn and finished third last time over 1m at this circuit, beaten 2 lengths. In the right race and is one of the top-three hopes. RIVERBEND GOLD (4) has been racing consistently since joining the new stable and gets Parish back on board. Top-three conveyance on best figures. BRASS MONKEYS (2) best of the rest despite the wide draw.
