Verdict
West Brit was ending a long losing run when beating ANOTHER FOR JOE (NAP) by only a neck over track and trip recently. But he is penalised for that success and the latter can take his revenge on today's revised terms. Sakhalin Star has been thereabouts over 7f of late but is facing a tougher task in this while both Playtothewhistle and Archie's Advice landed doubles on the all-weather earlier but have gone off the boil since. Bognor has yet to win on Turf but may still prove best of the rest off his current mark.
