Race preview
A trappy contest in which the progressive High Court Judge, a winner of six of his last seven starts, is likely to be popular. He's yet to prove his stamina at this trip though and with a penalty to shoulder, he might be worth taking on with COMTE DE LOIR. The lightly-raced four-year-old recorded a narrow victory at Kempton last time out and with the prospect of more to come, a 3lb rise should not be a barrier to further success. Weddell Sea heads the remainder.
