Verdict
Sarson, representing a stable that is hitting peak form, has every chance on his last-time out effort off this mark when narrowly denied at Catterick although his best form has been on a faster surface. Gorestski appears to be coming to form judged on a close second at Ayr last week and won't mind the testing conditions while Statoyork and John O'Groats are both capable of going well in a tricky finale.
