Verdict
Recent winners Approach The City, Recuerdame and Ower Starlight all carry penalties. STARRY EYES may well have won off this mark at Lingfield last week had he got away on terms and warrants another chance. Rooful is on a hat-trick but has done all of his winning over shorter trips and Measured Moments, also on a three-timer, has only won at Wolverhampton so far. Zealot is a course and distance winner, however, and hasn’t been beaten far the last twice off today’s mark. Paddy K is the likely pace angle from stall one.
