Verdict

Three-year-olds don't have a very good recent record and Street Duel's only victory came at Southwell. Le Deluge dropped to Class 6 company to gain a very easy victory at Redcar a week ago and will find this tougher with a penalty but EUTROPIUS showed signs of an imminent victory at Beverley on Monday. Alan Swinbank's charge has gradually been dropping to a winnable mark and can gain his first victory since dead-heating for a Class 2 handicap at Newcastle last summer. Miss Ranger has been finding 1m2f too short and should make a bold bid with her rider's claim a bonus.
