Verdict
Shomberg beat TANFORAN in this last year by a short-head and is now 4lb better off. But Serena Brotherton takes over the reins on the runner-up and, as he rarely runs a bad race here, Brian Baugh's veteran could reverse the form and land this as he gets plenty of weight from the more consistent Silvas Romana and Peak Storm. Marvo is potentially well treated but lacks a recent run and Supa Seeker looks more of a danger despite being raised 6lb since finishing third at Salisbury.
