      Verdict

      The progressive Swilly Sunset has proved unstoppable of late and, with this step up in trip likely to be in his favour, there is every chance he could defy a 9lb rise and complete a superb four-timer. However, at the likely cramped odds, a case could be put forward for taking him on with Ghinia and HARD TOFFEE viable alternatives, particularly the latter who is 2-3 under Jim Crowley.
