In depth
Verdict
Tojoneski gets the call over Broke Road, with Etching and Forever My Lord best of the remainder. Tojoneski has hit form at the right time and appears to have obvious claims of following up his latest effort at Musselburgh where his stamina came into play over 13 furlongs. Although this is a drop in trip, he has to be bang in there at the finish with not much to beat. Broke Road looks the main danger on his Kempton success in March but that was on softer ground. He is fit from a run over timber though and should be prominent. Etching has to give weight away all round but was also successful last time out, as was Forever My Lord. The latter was visiting the winner's enclosure for the first time in two years when scoring in selling company at Brighton and is well handicapped on his best form. Any money for the consistent Lenwade would be interesting, but Tojoneski is the pick.
