Verdict
El Fuser may be able to bring his frustrating sequence to an end but Valento and Kinnego Bay should give him something to think about. Peter Makin's horses have been running well of late and Seb Sanders is always a positive booking for the yard. The selection can't be said to be progressing as once looked likely but he hasn't done a great deal wrong in defeat and a small race may come his way. Valento had Too Grand and Hucking Harkness behind when failing by a short-head at Lingfield. He has found some form of late and has a leading chance from the same mark. Kinnego Bay's latest effort at Great Leighs is probably best ignored and this represents a drop in grade for him. He has plenty to prove on this season's form but wasn't far behind Corrybrough on his final start at two; his yard is going better now and he could feature but the vote goes the way of the consistent El Fuser.
