In depth
Verdict
Twisted Logic looks to have the edge in this disappointing turn out for a decent prize. The form of his recent victory at Exeter has worked out well and although he has never been at his best on soft going should still have too many guns for his rivals. He is the TEAMtalk selection. Tom's Prize has proven form on heavy ground but is a little inconsistent. He will need to show he has no ill effects from his last time out fall to perform to his best here. Lucy's Lad ran well on his reappearance six days ago and has performed better in the past. Minella Storm will have to improve on all known for to score here.
