Verdict

MEGS BOY (4) was only 3.7 metres away in third when resuming. Fitter for that and owns a good record at this venue, winning four of seven attempts. Likely improver who has the talent to take this out. RIBEIRO (3) draws well and is on the radar after some nice efforts from wider barriers including his last-start fourth here a week ago, beaten only 2.4m. COPPERFIELD (1) has led from this barrier and stuck on well in his last two outings at this venue. Goes up in distance this time. May give a sight again. CHEZZ DALE (9) had to work from a similar barrier last time but was a winner here prior so is good enough with better luck.
