Verdict

OUD METHA BRIDGE (NAP) has strong claims in this. He’s been in fine form at Kempton this year and can race off a 5lb lower mark back on this surface than when scoring at the latter track in February. Interlink also went close at Kempton earlier this year when runner-up over 7f but previous efforts over further fail to boost confidence while Cryptonite is another returning to a mile. Buskin River won over today’s trip at Brighton in September and remains 3lb higher while Castle Talbot was thereabouts off similar marks last season but has just the one win in 25 starts.
