Verdict
Supreme Vic has been in tremendous form over the past few weeks and deserved his comfortable success at Gowran for which an 8lb rise shouldn't prevent another big effort. Celtic Monarch's victory at Hexham came in a seller while Noble Call has a career strike-rate of 1-49 though at least that victory came on this track. Island Villa is slowly dropping to a mark he looks capable of winning from and should be doing so soon but this can go to BANK THE BUCKS. He hasn't been seen since October when placed in decent handicaps but has won after a long break in the past and won't be inconvenienced by the ground.
