In depth
Verdict
Marvel was third in a better race at York last July and is only a pound higher but is still seeking a first victory. Phoenix Star is best watched back on Turf but Tanasoq should be capable of winning a contest like this off his current mark, though was behind Ballyare at Musselburgh last month. James Watt will handle conditions but VENTURA FLAME runs his best races on stiff track like this and he hinted that his turn wasn’t far away again when staying on into a close third at Beverley. Freedom Flyer remains relatively unexposed and could also figure.
