In depth
Verdict
Mister Wall Street should set out to make all and could well do so in receipt of weight from all rivals although he hasn't won away from Hexham since 2009. A good effort is anticipated all the same but SUBLIME TALENT, despite far from living up to his name on recent outings, did perform far better the last day when third in a decent contest behind a rejuvenated Able Deputy and Surf And Turf, form that reads well here. That was also his first run after a break so hopefully he's put that below par sequence behind him and can build on the recent improvement with Conor Ring taking off a useful 7lb. Veloce has gone well enough on each of four chasing starts to be a player off topweight just nine days after his latest effort behind Imjoeking, whilst Irish raider Maddoxtown is on a fair mark but remains 0-24 under Rules.
