Verdict
For Richard scored on the Polytrack here in April but could only manage third over track and trip last time behind GOLD SOUK. The latter never figured over 1m4f on faster going at Brighton subsequently but gets another chance back here. Frankly Mr Shankly has been thereabouts on the all-weather since returning to the Flat while City Tour is back on a winning mark and is preferred to Leroy Leroy.
