Verdict
Streets Of Promise was entered at Chepstow yesterday but would be a threat if turning up here instead. Take The Mick went close to ending his losing run at Chepstow last month and Wilton Milan and Allez Vic could figure dropping down a grade. Cloudy Copper is fairly consistent but struggling to get his head in front. As De Fer failed in his hat-trick bid off a higher mark at Warwick but is still in better form that stablemate Victors Serenade. Peter Bowen's runners often come good at this time of year and UNIVERSAL SOLDIER was more like his old self at Haydock last time. He was just beaten in a hunter chase on heavy going here last year and can score again.
