Verdict
TENHOO has struck up a good understanding with Nathan Alison and the partnership can complete a hat-trick here after wins over similar trips at Newcastle and Doncaster. Few of the others are at the top of their game at present though Amical Risks finished second when favourite at Wolverhampton earlier this month and should make the frame again, despite being 2lb wrong in the weights. Dubara Reef generally need further than this while a first-time visor would have to bring about massive improvement in Cluain Alainn for him to get competitive so best of the rest may be Straversjoy, who has tackled better company in the main since winning at Wolverhampton in January.
