Verdict
Gordon Elliott holds the key to this with Buyer Beware and TOCORORO. The former has a penalty to carry for his victory in a Downpatrick maiden in March and didn't make the expected progress when only third at Perth last month. The latter's second to Newberry New in a Grade 3 at Newbury in February is comfortably the best form and though beaten twice subsequently it was in Grade 2 and 1 level. The remaining trio have shown nothing but Boom Box may do better now tackling quicker ground.
