RACING POST VERDICT

The vote goes to BLACKISTHENEWBLACK (nap) who made the breakthrough with a dominant display at Kempton 16 days ago.

Our Expert Tip

Andrew Balding runs BLACKISTHENEWBLACK here and after a much improved performance last time out when making all, the first time cheekpieces really looked to make a difference. I still think there’s more improvement to come.

BOILMAKER looks the main danger if the step up in trip brings out further progress.
