Verdict
HI HO SILVER made the most of a good draw on Turf at Lingfield earlier this month but may be worth sticking with now that he’s got his head in front. This is an open-looking finale, however, with Miss Icon continuing to run well despite creeping up the weights. Soldier's Son has been placed three times over 6f since last seen over this extra furlong and Espresso Freddo has been showing signs of a revival and has one of the most experienced apprentices doing the steering. Yarmouth runner-up Garth Rockett should also go well along with Salisbury winner Another Boy but Silvington had shown little before a 33/1 winner last time.
