Verdict

SMOKEY MALONE had the measure of Bella Colorossa when scoring at Chelmsford earlier this year and went close again at Brighton recently when ahead of Victory Star - Julia Feilden’s grey gets the vote on that form. Jeremiah Johnson finished in front of Sherpa Trail when third on Polytrack here having won a classified race earlier but The Game Is On steps back up in trip looking to end a long losing run so the returning Thermal makes more appeal.
