NEWBURY
2.00: The eased ground will be ideal for EASY OPTION, who has not been seen out since sluicing home at Nottingham in April, by six lengths from the subsequent multiple winner Thick As Thieves, and may be be too good for some exposed rivals.
3.00: Red Route meets his elders and betters on worse than weight-for-age terms and his defeats of Lombardic and Summit cannot match FORESEE, fifth in a German Group One race in July and placed in the Irish Derby and St Leger last year, for quality.
3.30: ROYAL SEATON, who has finished close up in several of the season's most valuable handicaps, will enjoy the eased going and is a fair price at 7-1 with Ladbrokes (13-2 Coral).
