Verdict

Desert Strike is back on a winning mark having slipped down the weights but has yet to show any improvement for it. By contrast, Drawnfromthepast's tumble down the handicap was accompanied by a much better effort over track and trip last time and he has leading claims in this. Secret Millionaire and Mossgo are upped in class while Only Ten Per Cent has done all his winning at Southwell so far. PULL THE PIN was well beaten in much better company last time but had scored in this grade at Wolverhampton before that and gets the nod off only a 2lb higher mark today.
