Race Summary

A few with chances but it’s hard to side against BROOMFIELDS CAVE who remains unexposed as a stayer and can defy a 7lb rise in the weights after his emphatic win at Southwell. Hungry Hill is feared most on the back of his resurgent Perth second, with the consistent Lelantos well in the mix too.
