Verdict
Indian Red won over 2m at Wolverhampton in January but needs to find a bit more off his current mark. Navajo Star is 9lb higher than when scoring over a shorter trip here last month but still finished in front of Dalasiri when fourth at Kempton last time. Temasek Star has been thereabouts at Dundalk off similar marks recently but LEORO remains relatively unexposed and may well defy a 5lb rise for winning over 1m6f at Wolverhampton a fortnight ago when Caracas was well beaten.
