Verdict
NEWBURY STREET comes from the in form Richard Fahey yard and is given the vote to add to the trainers winning tally at the expense of Honest Broker and Ginger Grey. The selection broke his maiden tag at Wolverhamton on his penultimate outing back in September and was not discredited at Ayr after finishing third of sixteen thereafter. His form looks rock solid and with conditions in his favour he ought to go close. Honest Broker is three pounds higher since breaking his maiden tag over course and distance last time out. Mark Johnston has his team in good order and he is sure to have plenty of supporters. Ginger Grey won here on his penultimate outing but he disappointed running off a three pound higher mark at Kempton last time out when sent off favourite. He now has questions to answer but back at his favoured track he has to be respected. Newbury Street has more ticks in his boxes compared to the majority of his rivals and looks the percentage call.
