Verdict

This is DARTREY's toughest assignment in handicaps but he still looks ahead of his mark if his recent busy spell doesn't catch up with him. Augustus Gloop races off the same as when narrowly denied at Wolverhampton last week and is second choice ahead of Monarch's Gold and Bassenthwaite in this warm 3-y-o handicap.
