Verdict
BRONTE BEACH looked a different proposition when stepped up to 1m6f at Southwell with a first-time hood applied and a 10lb rise might not be enough to stop Archie Watson's filly from backing that victory up. Gallus Norman (second) ran the best race of his career to date when ahead of Star Of Markinch (fourth) over the extended mile and a half here and is expected to uphold the form. However, a bigger threat may come from Zimmerman after his runner-up effort at Catterick.
Expert View Verdict
Zimmerman will appeal to many after is good second over this trip at Catterick last time and he gets to go from the same mark here but BRONTE BEACH is coming off a breakthrough success upped to 14f at Southwell, when clearly improving for the fitting of a hood for the first time, and the former Gosden-trained runner is open to further improvement as a stayer now back on turf. Gallus Norman is coming off a good second over 12f at the course last time and is well worth a crack at this longer trip.
