Verdict

SANDFRANKSKIPSGO is one of number of veteran sprinters in the care of owner/trainer Peter Crate, all of whom continue to pay their way. The Piccolo gelding was last seen obliging at Newbury in August and has suggested his turn is near with solid placed efforts the last twice. He should prove competitive off a mark of 76 and is taken to reverse recent running with Tailwind. The Hannon charge responded well to blinkers when making all on that occasion but has yet to convince on Turf whereas the selection is quite at home on this surface. None of the remainder can be ignored with One Big Surprise and Brighton specialist Otomo both capable of their day.
