Verdict
Considering that Laurel Dawn won on the all weather last year off a mark of 80, his current rating of 64 makes him a very attractive proposition to follow up his victory at Musselburgh last week. He is ideally positioned in stall 20 and, as an in-form sprinter who has good early speed; he should not be left out of any calculations whilst he is in such a frame of mind. Of the others, Soaked would be a big danger were he not drawn on the stands side and his early dash may have already climaxed when they level for home; whereas Teyaar, Mutasawwar and Bodfari Komate cannot be ruled out even from less advantageous draws. Sir Sandrovitch is also not without a chance if he can be played late on a track he has always gone well at. But Tommy Smith also posses a good course record and could represent the biggest danger to Laurel Dawn from stall 18.
