Sibaaq, the only three-year-old in the line-up, won over the track and trip in August and again last month where he looked to have a bit in hand. A 4lb rise doesn't look excessive and he should go well again. Queen's Sargent has also won around here and scored on heavy ground and he's performed in stronger company since last month's victory at Catterick. Gallipoli, the winner of six races, has never proved himself in these conditions but GIVE IT SOME TEDDY certainly has. He won the lucrative Redcar Straight-Mile Final on heavy going in 2019 after which he moved stables but now back with Tim Easterby he caught the eye on soft ground at Carlisle and is on a fair mark. Broken Spear got up on the line at Chester and was racing in better company at Thirsk next time so isn't out of this.
