Verdict

Satchville Flyer won over 5f here and was then sent to Guernsey where he found 1m2f much too far. He's won over the course and distance and can never be ruled out at this level. Irish raider Dandyman Port is well handicapped at his best though he's never tackled ground this quick. Bungee Jump has been tackling better company since landing a Lingfield claimer in March and showed good pace in a stronger race than this at Chester last time. The bottom pair are returning after a break and both have plenty of scope. GLOBAL TANGO signalled an imminent victory when beaten a neck at Windsor then scored over 6f at Newcastle where he stayed on strongly. He's just handed the vote over Boreagh Lass, who has changed stables after scoring at Windsor then running well in a decent contest at Newbury.
