Verdict

ROARING CONQUEST reached a fairly useful level in 4 starts last season, winning a Lingfield maiden before third in a Grade 2 novice at Haydock, so he remains with potential now switched to a handicap. He is taken to get the better of King of The Lake, who is respected with his reappearance run behind him, with Saint Palais the pick of the remainder.
