Newmarket 18:27 - Price Boost

oddschecker Verdict

Having proved more competitive when dropped to this grade over C&D a fortnight ago, a 1lb rise is unlikely to prevent another bold showing from Rising Force. However, John Butler's gelding may have to play second fiddle once more, given THE SWEET ESCAPE's current vein of form. The four-year-old was denied a hat-trick by only a short head at the Galway Festival recently and he looks slightly better treated. Sir Edward Lear could also feature dropping back in trip.

Prediction: 1st The Sweet Escape, 2nd Rising Force, 3rd Sir Edward Lear
