Verdict

FUN N FUN TOGETHER (1) drops back to C4 today and gets Purton on board in what looks like a targeted assault. He loves this track and trip and Purton has won 2/4 when partnering the gelding. Happy to overlook his most recent form and expecting him to bounce back to his best. WORLD HERO (11) bounced back to some sort of form last start over this trip on the Turf where he was 4.3L off the winner. Comes onto the All Weather for the first time which is the query, though he carries no weight and his prior form stacks up. Can make his presence felt. FLOWING RICHES (2) went forward last start over 6f at this track and held on well for third, beaten 5 lengths. Suitably placed so anticipating another big run. KING DANCE (8) turned in a fine effort to win by a nose at today's course and distance last start in a much improved run. Likely to be there at the finish again.
