Verdict
The unexposed Threefeetfromgold will be winning at this level before long but it could pay to stick with BIG TIME MAYBE (NAP) in this. The latter won a higher grade sprint over track and trip last month with Ghepardo well beaten and can go in again raised only 3lb. Toni's A Star never threatened when placed at Leicester and saves his best for Wolverhampton nowadays while Haveoneyerself has failed to figure off higher marks since winning at Yarmouth last month. Hellovaqueen finished runner-up at Chepstow last time but that was in a lowly seller.
