Verdict

It's difficult to get away from HAWKSWOOD, who completed a double here last month but couldn't quite cope with Word For Word on his hat-trick attempt. He hasn't had much racing and can progress enough to get back to winning ways. He had Bessie Lou and Vinniespride behind when gaining the second of his victories and though the latter pair are better off at the weights they may struggle to reverse the form. Waterloo Sunrise is rarely beaten far from around this sort of mark but he's still a maiden after 13 starts.
